+10^(10^100) The UNIX tty driver, the default tab settings you get from e.g. tset, and the default tab settings in most if not all UN*X terminal emulators do 8-space tabs. (Xcode didn't get the memo, which is why http://www.opensource.apple.com/source/autofs/autofs-207/autofs.xcodeproj/project.pbxproj has a bunch of entries that say "indentWidth = 8".) ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev () wireshark org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-request () wireshark org?subject=unsubscribe
