My understanding from talking to different people is that many do use tabs (instead of spaces) for indentation in their code.
My question is to them (because I want to use tabs too) is: how do you maintain a line-length of 79 characters? E.g. scenario: The tab setting in your editor could be 2 or 4, and in other developer's browser it could be 8. The code will be longer than 79 chars in the latter's editor. I want to know if it's at all possible or if you use some simple and realistic (practical) hacks. *PS: Please avoid, "That's why you should use spaces," type of comments. I would like to avoid flame wars.* TY, Aahan -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
