Lets just mandate spaces instead of tabs - I assume all reasonable editors can do spaces instead of tabs nowadays anyway, and it would alleviate some of the confusion. Now, way back when I was young (and that's a while ago...) I worked on a project where the project lead had a script that ran through the source tree and converted multiple spaces into the appropriate number of tabs... This was on an early PDP-11 with very limited RAM and disk space, and supporting (IIRC) 6 users, and he could save maybe a few thousand bytes by doing that - it actually made a difference to compile times! But I rather think those days are past now, and that a few extra bytes to pad the source with spaces won't hit us all that hard.... -- Ian SELEX Sensors and Airborne Systems Limited Registered Office: Sigma House, Christopher Martin Road, Basildon, Essex SS14 3EL A company registered in England & Wales.
