Because to follow your system, everybody that uses GNU indentation style would have to use TAB == 2 spaces, which means that the contents of indented blocks would be indented by two tabs per block level. If you attempted to view such code using an application which uses the standard tab size of 8 -- e.g., more or less in a terminal -- blocks would end up being indented by _16 spaces per block level_, which is (pardon my french) pretty fucking absurd. -Miles -- Would you like fries with that? -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
