Otherwise a newly allocated string Returning wrong results on insufficient memory doesn't make sense. Anyway, xmalloc always exits the program if there is insufficient memory, so you don't need any code to allow for that case. > +static char * convert_white_space (char *orig) Newline, not space, between return type and function name, so that the function name comes at the start of the line. > + if (orig == NULL) return orig; The comment didn't mention NULL as a valid argument, and it doesn't appear NULL can actually be passed to this function.
