That argument is really lame. Should we now go back to VT100 terminals because _some_ Emacs users are annoyed that ANSI colors break their shell window display? They should read about ansi-color-for-comint-mode-on and add-hook. There are probably other ways to do this. It is equally annoying when _some_ Emacs users leave lines filled with nothing but spaces all over the Zope code base. Yet, nobody asked for a rule that would somehow prevent that. The Emacs users can easily prevent these spaces by setting show-trailing-whitespace in python-mode-hook or simply using delete-trailing-whitespace from time to time. Setting next-line-add-newlines to nil in the .emacs file is also a good idea. Anyway, why enforce an ancient terminal style on all of us when Emacs users could actually set their shell window style? _______________________________________________ Zope-Dev maillist - Zope-Dev@zope.org http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-dev ** No cross posts or HTML encoding! ** (Related lists - http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope-announce http://mail.zope.org/mailman/listinfo/zope )
