For teams with a mixture of text editors in use, there are even tools nowadays to help everyone's text editor enforce consistency of the fundamentals in the code. One which is ready now and already widely adopted is EditorConfig: EditorConfig helps developers define and maintain consistent coding styles between different editors and IDEs. The EditorConfig project consists of a file format for defining coding styles and a collection of text editor plugins that enable editors to read the file format and adhere to defined styles. EditorConfig files are easily readable and they work nicely with version control systems. <URL:http://editorconfig.org/> -- \ “I was in Las Vegas, at the roulette table, having a furious | `\ argument over what I considered to be an odd number.” —Steven | _o__) Wright | Ben Finney -- https://mail.python.org/mailman/listinfo/python-list
