Just a coding preference, but still, I've seen too many mistakes (made
them myself too).
if (strcmp(args[i].name, name) == 0)
Looks better as a match then
if (!strcmp(args[i].name, name))
That stands out to me as a miss match. But this is still just a
preference and not something to make me argue the patch.
