are also valid and coding is much more fun than arguing)

I learned those rather important details in my earlier days as a young C++ coder from the senior coders.
Also, using some fixed pitch fonts, like Courier helps to beautify the format even furthur (bolding it makes even better for my taste).

Due to our big code base and this repeating discussion we probably
should define this minimum of coding standard:
- - do not use tabs, use only spaces (this guarantees that the code looks
the same everywhere and any formating won't break)
- - a tab must have a size of 8. (This shouldn't matter when everyone
sticks to the point above. But someti mes things go wrong. And 8
Spaces/Tab is the standard/default that every editor can handle - even
every email program)
Not in a minimal coding standard should be:
- - use only 2 spaces per indent (that's what I prefer - but other choices
are also valid and coding is much more fun than arguing)
I'd be happy if we can accept that and make it official - then we've got
one topic less that can keep us from coding :) Oh, the choice of the
editor also doesn't matter anymore then.
CU,
Christian
