Terry J. Reedy <tjre...@udel.edu> added the comment: I am a bit surprised this was not part of the original design. 'Tabsize' make 'expand_tabs' redundant and tabsize==0 could be interpreted as expand_tabs==False. On the other hand, the meaning of 'expand_tabs' could be expanded to include the tabsize. I am almost tempted to suggest making expand_tabs > 1 be interpreted as tabsize and make expand_tabs==True(1, the current default) be interpreted as expand_tabs==8 (the new default) for back_compatibility.
Patch as is has new tests and looks good on first reading. ---------- nosy: +terry.reedy _______________________________________ Python tracker <rep...@bugs.python.org> <http://bugs.python.org/issue13152> _______________________________________ _______________________________________________ Python-bugs-list mailing list Unsubscribe: http://mail.python.org/mailman/options/python-bugs-list/archive%40mail-archive.com
