Subject: [9fans] Acme tabs to spaces
Date: Tue, 6 Dec 2005 10:43:05 -0800 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <EB193199-F5CE-4E61-B68C-EFD5F05EF172@telus.net> (raw)
So my new employer has a coding convention that tabs don't appear in
source, and that indent levels are 4 spaces. Ick. But in the
interest of global harmony, I'm willing to adapt. I know I can
trivially convert the tabs to spaces at any given time, and set
$tabstops to 4 to get the right width, but I have to do the
conversion with each file I save. Ick.
Is there some automatic tab conversion code somewhere in Acme? Where
would be the sane place to put such a thing? (yes, I already know
there is no sane place for such a thing...)
Paul
