If you want to mark that \t in files are bad, let at least set softtabstop=2 to make using <tab> sane.Without starting any new discussion, my only intent is that any tabs in a Wireshark source file are always displayed as going to a column position of 9, 17, ... (where the left-most column is numbered as 1).
Thanks for doing that, by the way. I wanted to do it myself but was afraid of starting a war. ;-) (Until someone tells me how to tell all the terminal programs that I use that tabs don't occupy the same room as 8 spaces--so that things like 'cat' and 'less' show the same indenting as <insert your editor here>--I will be a fervent believer that tab characters should move the cursor 8 spaces.) ___________________________________________________________________________ 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
