I would agree. That is a more readable way, I think.
In this case, perhaps even a switch might better, assuming that all of
the t_c.cc[] are unique:
switch (ch) {
case t.c_cc[VINTR]) {
...do INTR processing...
break;
};
case t.c_cc[VQUIT]) {
...do QUIT processing...
break;
}
case t.c_cc[VKILL]) {
...do KILL processing...
break;
}
...etc
In which language would this be? It's not C at least... Syntax is slightly broken, but case values in C must be integer constant expression... But I agree it would be nice if C would allow more flexible options for the case values...
