But for sure, tab size isn't an issue here. You seem to regard it as a style issue when in fact it has nothing do with style: it's a *representation* issue for your source code. If you can't "agree" on tab size, you might as well not agree not to use EBCDIC. Any text editor worth its money let's you configure what the tab key does completely independently from how it displays ASCII TAB characters in the text, so differences in tab size aren't even visible to the user; you might as well configure the de-facto standard. -- Cheers =8-} Mike Friede, Völkerverständigung und überhaupt blabla
