Latest commit of revcheck.php: revert to tabulations instead of spaces
That file is a script and isn't part of the doumentation :)
We usally use tabs for scripts, but thats up with the author(s).
GH> Our guidelines say that we use PEAR standards in the scripts too. Just to GH> make life simpler. Livedocs is the exception actually, but other scripts GH> are mostly done with spaces. Derick is always advocating tabs...
After the latest post in this ML: [PHP-DOC] Small patch for revcheck.php Maybe somebody with admin privileges should rollback commit, so we can start to work on this script? Or better leave the tabs for fun? =)
*I* think it is better to keep 4 spaces, since that is in the PEAR standard. BTW this is suggested because people (can) have different tab length settings.
That's a bullshit argument Goba, it should NEVER matter what people's tab lengths are as the code should look the same anyway. Use tabs for initial indentation.
Derick, your view is nothing new to me, as I pointed out above in this same thread. I dislike people using tabs, because they tend to mix them with spaces, and not see on the screen that they are not doing the right indentation. As I have said, this is my personal view, and I admit it might be bullshit. Since I am not doing active delopment on the source codes in phpdoc, I am not against using tabs, but it is not my personal preference. The usage should be documented in the howto then.
