In practice, I've seen more problem from DevStudio users. The worst is probably when it happily mixes different line-ends like CR, CR-LF, LF, CR-CR-LF... But the wrong-tabs thing is another problem. One guy sets 2, one sets 8, one sets 3... In Emacs, however, it's easy to fix: (setq indent-tabs-mode nil) There. No more tabs in source-code. No more problems -- Jon A. Cruz What's this? It's almost as though the fates were tempting me to... Bad fates. Baaad... Naughty fates...
