#9230: Make -fwarn-tabs the default -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Reporter: dfeuer | Owner: mlen Type: feature | Status: closed request | Milestone: 7.10.1 Priority: normal | Version: 7.8.2 Component: Compiler | Keywords: Resolution: fixed | Architecture: Unknown/Multiple Operating System: | Difficulty: Easy (less than 1 Unknown/Multiple | hour) Type of failure: | Blocked By: None/Unknown | Related Tickets: Test Case: | Blocking: | Differential Revisions: Phab:D255, | Phab:D399 | -------------------------------------+------------------------------------- Comment (by Polarina): Tabs are generally not the cause for incorrect indentation. It is mixing them with spaces that do. An alternative approach would be to warn if a tab character is preceded by a space. That would keep the tabs people happy, even those that use tabs for indentation and spaces for alignment; while catching most cases of tab/space mix-ups. -- Ticket URL: http://ghc.haskell.org/trac/ghc/ticket/9230#comment:30 GHC http://www.haskell.org/ghc/ The Glasgow Haskell Compiler
