Oh, I see. You want me to learn how to reconfigure editors. Ok, I'm game. What I use varies, and I feel far from proficient at configuring editors. Please list your approved/tested editors. I look forward to receiving form you a cheat sheet of how to configure tabs to spaces in popular editors. It would be interesting to know how to do that, though of course I wouldn't normally bother since I prefer tabs. One reason I like real tabs is that it avoids the debate of the "correct" number of spaces to represent a tab. Although four spaces sounds reasonable to me, others love two, three, or five spaces. > Oh please.

I didn't cast aspersions on anyone about making a power play. I don't know you well enough to have formed any opinion. > Everybody is of course free to write in whatever > arcane style they want, as long as the *checked in code* complies with > the mandated coding style! Is this your idea of being broadminded? To reject contributions? Or, do you have a different point? Are you volunteering to do the work of reformating all checked in code for consistency no matter what style it is written in? Would the "mandated coding style" only be mandatory for you? ;-) Cheers, Robin --------------------------------------------------------------------------- www.LinuxMovies.org http://filmgimp.sourceforge.net www.OpenSourceProgrammers.org -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
