[Freeciv-Dev] Weird statement

[Raimar Falke <hawk@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

Searching for a solution to the "allow comments in every server
command" problem I found this one: server/stdinhand.c

  /* commands may be prefixed with SERVER_COMMAND_PREFIX,
     even when given on the server command line - rp */

  if (*cptr_s == SERVER_COMMAND_PREFIX) cptr_s++;

  for(cptr_s=str; *cptr_s && !isalnum(*cptr_s); cptr_s++);

The if has no effect since the first statement of the for loop
"cptr_s=str" overwrites it. Correct?!

  Wow.  That's way better than I did and I wrote the code!"
