Deprecated Darkstar fourms

I see a lot of mixed styles among the projects source files. I think it'd really be helpful to have a few standards defined so our submissions will look more in line with what you expect. As a rather minor example I see a lot of mixed spacing, 2 or 5 spaces instead of 4, not just mixing tabs and spaces which I can live with.

me too, but it never really happened: i just follow what file i'm in (as they're usually the same)



generally, i do tabs (or 4 spaces), braces on separate lines, space between if and bracket

Tab keys should be removed from keyboards, or all systems should standardize to replacing tabs to 4 spaces. Tabs are the devils work.

I feel the same way about any interface that requires I touch the mouse. As soon as I have to remove a hand from the keys and reach for the rodent, my workflow is disrupted. And then there is my cat...Mice were delivered to earth directly from hell itself with the sole purpose of entertaining my cat who enjoys watching my reaction to a swatted pc peripheral.

As for tabs, I tend to use tabs then batch convert them all to 4 spaces, got used to that from modifying python works where somebody didn't know how to use a spacebar or the basic replace most editors have.

Yeah any new editor I get or when I reinstall /reformat the first thing I do is disable tabs and make them spaces. Cannot stand them at all.
