Just one tiny point, though. I've never been a fan of hiding pointers behind typedefs. I would much prefer:

Better to have those *s out in the open, where we can keep an eye on them.

 C is a flexible language, and also caters for those that have heretical opinions.  I have no use of a function type in a language that does not treat functions as first class objects - you cannot pass a function as a parameter, return one from a function, or even have a function object. You always deal with pointers to functions.

That's a perfectly valid reason to prefer your way, and mine is a perfectly valid reason to prefer mine. TMTOWTDI.
