Personally, I still think that 8-space tabs are for people who like their files to look right on the default state of any system. Other schemes have caused me too many problems in the past when shifting from one system to another for me to believe claims that they're good. I have a distinct sense of déjà vu about this argument, though. :) -- Colin Watson [EMAIL PROTECTED]
