Re: Is there a mode that helps enforce coding guidelines?

[Kevin Dziulko <dziulko@klaatu.canisius.edu>]

It's not an answer to your exact question, but one could just make use of 
the different styles, including home made ones.  Just change the value of 
c-set-style.  So while coding at work, you could set it to a personal 
style you've defined,  set it to gnu style while working on open source 
projects, etc.

This won't help you with highlighting rule-breakers, but could be usefull 
in the meantime.
