Bug ID: 57826
Summary: SyntaxHighlight should not convert tabs to 8 spaces
Product: MediaWiki extensions
Version: unspecified
Hardware: All
OS: All
Status: NEW
Severity: normal
Priority: Unprioritized
Component: SyntaxHighlight (GeSHi)
Assignee: [email protected]
Reporter: [email protected]
CC: [email protected], [email protected]
Classification: Unclassified
Mobile Platform: ---
Now that bug 39616 is fixed, the SyntaxHighlight extension is converting every
tab to a series of eight spaces. This transformation prevents the fix for bug
57824 from having any effect on <source> tags. It's also inconsistent with the
CodeEditor extension, which displays tabs as four spaces and binds the Tab key
to the tab character (bug 39616). While an eight-character wide tab may make
sense in some contexts, replacing a tab with eight spaces would seem contrary
to user intent in the vast majority of cases.
Possibly a regression of bug 30930?
