I'm not happy with "brute-force" converting *any* tab to space(s), and
it would be better to have a tool that (conditionally) does this
rather than supplying patches to lots of files converted by Emacs. The
same tool could be used just to check for "illegal" tabs. As I
understand this, these are *tabs in leading whitespace*.
Trailing whitespace could be removed. (Currently trailing tabs are
converted to many trailing spaces.)
I've also come across files that do not end with newline...
Opinions?
I think we should do this once, after a tool is in place to make sure
these things don't get in anymore.
A big +1 to sage -t failing on files that have tabs, lack newlines, or
whatever else the style guide enforces. I've also thought it would be
useful to have a trac plugin that points out such things (and it could
report coverage changes as well).
