Yes, a bit.

I think that '<' '>' is for "system" includes, such as libraries. On certain platforms such as Netware, that was a lot clearer. :-)

I was thinking one rule of thumb was that if the .h comes from an installed .rpm or .deb on the system, then we go for '<'.

So I was thinking the subtle strangeness is a bit more of "system" vs "user" as opposed to "inside app" vs "outside app"

LCMS, for example, qualifies for angle brackets. Then again, some of the code of libs we've included in our source tree might qualify also.

Fun!
