I haven't seen the patch yet, because apparently I lost my subscription to the notmuch list but hadn't realized that (oops!). But yes, the settings in .dir-locals.el should definitely match the conventions of the project. And also, yes, we should not have two spaces at the end of sentences. That looks so awful in a fixed-width font. I'm glad that the younger generations didn't have such a habit driven into them. -Carl _______________________________________________ notmuch mailing list -- [email protected] To unsubscribe send an email to [email protected]
