Subject: [PATCH 2/2] list.h doc: change "counter" to "control"
Date: Thu, 18 May 2006 10:54:00 -0700 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20060518105400.2aac9f44.rdunlap@xenotime.net> (raw)
From: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net>
Use loop "control" instead of loop "counter" for list iterator
descriptions. They are not counters, they are controls or
pointers or positions.
Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@xenotime.net>
