Thanks for the suggestion, but that change is not necessary because "true"
already means "non-zero" in C.

(I much prefer "true" over "non-zero" or "@c TRUE", as truth values are so
commonly used that there should be no need to distract the reader by
emphasising at every point the particular implementation used for it.)
