Hello John,
in my scripts, everything is indented what I think the right way is. Working
inside Emacs, I'm always usign the 'tab' key(indent-line). If the text
doesn't appear at the right place, I know I missed a parenthesis level, or
closing an 'else' or whatever. So indentation is to me a good habit. Now
about the implementation, tabs or space, there is so much space on hard disk
todays that it doesn't matter to save a few chars on source files. If it can
simplify source management, go ahead. But then could someone please post the
way to have Emacs not use 'tab' chars inside source file ?
