I don't like any of them (I've been trying (off and on) and failing to find a good standard for this type of thing for a long time). But I really don't like hiding the operators on the end. And I don't like adding extra parens just to "show precendence" (my eye can't match nested parens nearly as well as it can notice variations in spacing).
So now I try to line things up by precendence with the operator in front. I always put two spaces around logical expressions so I can put single spaces within them.
if( defined $settings && ! $setttings->{hidecode}
and $codtype{ $node->{nodetype} }
or $node->{code}
|| containscode( $node->{doctext} )
# ^1 ^2 ^3
) {
So the 'arguments' to 'and' line up above "^1", the arguments to 'or' above "^2" and the arguments to '||' above "^3". I think I've finally found a standard for this that I like. (:

Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
<code> <a> <b> <big>
<blockquote> <br /> <dd>
<dl> <dt> <em> <font>
<h1> <h2> <h3> <h4>
<h5> <h6> <hr /> <i>
<li> <nbsp> <ol> <p>
<small> <strike> <strong>
<sub> <sup> <table>
<td> <th> <tr> <tt>
<u> <ul>
-
Snippets of code should be wrapped in
<code> tags not
<pre> tags. In fact, <pre>
tags should generally be avoided. If they must
be used, extreme care should be
taken to ensure that their contents do not
have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent
horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor
intervention).
