OK. Thanks guys for your time and feedback!

But as I was reading Configuration Management Plan I have found that Version 
numbering guidelines are not respected. So I was wondering why is that so?
Also I was wondering, wouldn't it be easier to use tabs instead of spaces for 
indentation? I am asking this because at least in VIM a 4 space wide tab indent 
still will be a tab (you can set it for 8 and it will be 8 or anything else... 
2). But with spaces it is not the same thing, it is more difficult. Why to use 
spaces?
According to the Coding Standards, in the same plan, the coding style is K&R 
(although there is a minor mistake, in the plan. K&R recommendation: "Declare 
function names, return types, parameter types and names all on the one line, if 
you can.") but it is not followed. Again, why is that so?

In the end I wanted to ask if it will be OK if I will use tab indentation in 
FLTK 2 source code since almost nobody develops it. Further more, project 
Coding standards states this: "If you use tabs, they must be set at every 8 
character columns;" which means actually no body should be against it.

I don't know if Coding standards are followed in FLTK 1.3 so you may just think 
of this reply as food for brain (How to make others or ourselves to follow the 
standards? :-) ).

P.S. K&R coding style also recommends tabs for indentation, not spaces. :-)
P.P.S. Yes, I like the damn K&R style. :-)
P.P.P.S. Sorry if my English is not very good but I will improve it. :-)
