Having looked at the code base I don't think this would actually be
all that hard to implement customizable tabs for use in indenting as
an option to the Haml::Engine. Basically just an option like:
:tab => ' '
Would be the default (two spaces), but you could easily override it
with:
:tab => "\t"
Or whatever takes your fancy.
I don't know whether there would be a measurable speed hit, as it
would just be a case of replacing instance of the " " literal String
object with @options[:tab] instead.
That could actually be an alternative to the ":ugly" patch I sent
earlier today too; instead of ":ugly => true" you could just pass
":tab => ''".
The preprocessing proposal sounds like an ugly hack to me.
