[PATCH 2/2] list.h doc: change "counter" to "control"

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



From: Randy Dunlap <[email protected]>

Use loop "control" instead of loop "counter" for list iterator
descriptions.  They are not counters, they are controls or
pointers or positions.
