Thanks. Looks sensible to me.

Although exceeding the 80 column boundary, I think this would be more
readable without line break. If we want to stay within 80 columns, I
don't think you can use 5 levels of indentation at the same time.

You could also make use_nul a static global, although it probably does
not improve the situation much.
