You are talking about something like this now:

if (condition)
goto label;

return 0;

label:
do stuff

I'm sorry, but I fail to see how this is easier to read than

if (!condition)
return 0;

do stuff

The return statement is not unconditional in either case, but in the
first one it is just obfuscated by using the label and goto which are
completely unnecessary.

This is a fair point, though. I can make that change later. :-)

Thanks,
