Hello! Would you agree with removal of the word "void" in methodsynpsis both from return type and parameters list? I propose to change the return type to "null" which it really is and remove it completely from parameters list as it is the way to declare that function doesn't accept any parameters in user-defined functions. New synopsis would be: null debug_print_backtrace() instead of: void debug_print_backtrace(void)I suppose that it's still "void", even though the real return value is "NULL". "NULL" doesn't mean "don't expect it to return anything, the return value of this function is useless" as "void" does. So I'm -1 on this. -- Wbr, Antony Dovgal
