Wow, shall we argue over whether tabs or spaces are better too? And after we solve that we can figure out how many angels can dance on the head of a pin!



Btw, the answer is "spaces" because tabs can be interpreted differently from editor to editor.

To take it a step further, its 4-space indents. I've seen code where people pull off 2-spaces, but it gets crowded failrly quickly.

You should ask a tabs advocate what they think the primary feature of tabs is :)
