--- Comment #2 from Mr. Stradivarius <[email protected]> --- Should we switch all the existing modules to using tabs then? I know that it will work for writing new modules, but the point is that we have 6-months-worth of module code that is indented using four spaces, and people are going to make incremental changes to those modules. This means that from now we'll be seeing lots of these existing modules move to using both tabs and spaces. This isn't so bad if it is easy to tell that you've just inserted a tab rather than a set of four spaces, but in CodeEditor these two actions look exactly the same on the screen, and the indentation looks the same as it previously did. You can only tell that you've inserted tabs rather than spaces when you save the page and the code is displayed in geSHi. Many users might not even look closely at the code in geSHi, and not even realise their mistake. This doesn't seem like an ideal situation to me. -- You are receiving this mail because: You are on the CC list for the bug. _______________________________________________ Wikibugs-l mailing list [email protected] https://lists.wikimedia.org/mailman/listinfo/wikibugs-l
