Subject: [PATCH 13/13] attr: rename str_null from NULL away
Date: Sat, 23 Oct 2010 07:44:50 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1287812691-14470-14-git-send-email-jengelh@medozas.de> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1287812691-14470-1-git-send-email-jengelh@medozas.de>

A small little pedantism: NULL (as in, the pointer) isn't NUL (as in,
the character with value zero, '\0'). I propose to rename it to strz,
for the zero-terminated string (sometimes referred to as ASCIZ string,
but of course C isn't tied to ASCII).
