I *really* like SciTE.
However, the properties for editing Python code (python.properties) causes
SciTE
to use hard tabs for indentation. In the Python world, 4 spaces and no hard
tabs is by far the most common indentation, and is recommended.
Also, a more common block comment characters sequence is "##" (instead of
"#~").
The SciTE documentation mentions a reason for the tilda (to distinguish
between
block comments and other comments). But, I have not found a need for this.
So, I'd like to suggest that the following be added to the python.properties
file in the distribution:
tabsize.$(file.patterns.py)=4
indent.size.$(file.patterns.py)=4
use.tabs.$(file.patterns.py)=0
comment.block.python=##
comment.block.at.line.start.python=1
And, of course, if there are any Python people on the list who have a better
way
of coding the above options, then that would be great, too.
Has this already been discussed on this list. I searched the list for this
one,
but could not find where it had been discussed before.
Thanks again for SciTE.
Dave
