Hello Albert, I personally use 4-char tabs but it's not a requirement.
We don't enforce the 80 char rule strictly because there are corner cases where the code is much more readable when allowed to exceed the 80 char limit on a few lines. Readability is king and we live in 2018 after all :) Regards, -Soeren On Thu, 2018-09-27 at 20:49 +0200, Albert Green wrote: > Hi, > I'm in the process a writing a libsigrok driver for a new device and > I want to have my code formatted according to your rules. > I read that you are using the Linux coding style.
