Change formating of `\im' command in c.vim

Question

I have recently installed the c.vim plugin. The only issue is when I type \im (automatically adds the main function) this is the way how it displays it.

        int
main ( int argc, char *argv[] )
{
        return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}                               /* ----------  end of function main  ---------- */

As you can see it looks a bit messy (I think so at least!). Because of this is there a way how I can format it like this?

int main ( int argc, char *argv[] )
{
    return EXIT_SUCCESS;
}

To me this is much neater which is why I want to change it.

You need to edit c-support/codesnippets/main.c for C code and c-support/codesnippets/main.cc for C++

Otherwise it looks like the local version is stored in ~/.vim/bundle/cvim/c-support/templates

There is a file called c.idioms.template that contains the main function.

Edit:

I'm using pathogen so my path looks a little different. Per the c.vim documentation

The master template file is '$HOME/.vim/c-support/templates/Templates' for a user installation and '$VIM/vimfiles/c-support/templates/Templates' for a system-wide installation (see csupport-system-wide).
