Well, you can configure your IDE to emit 4 spaces on a tab press (that's how i do it)
But that Hungarian notation thing... Fuck that, don't contribute -
mundo0348297yAll IDE's convert tabs to spaces.
4 spaces us the standard in most projects.
You are just being an uncultured swine -
joas18507yFor resons @Krokoklemme mentioned tabs vs. spaces shouldn't really matter. I too do prefer tabs, but use spaces in work. -
Get over it. Most projects on github use spaces

McSebi4977yI personally think tabs should be rendered with 4 spaces in every text editor there is (excluding oo or msword or pages ofc) -
Kaji20717yGenuine tab user here. More economical when using arrow keys to navigate and easier to fix when things need realigning. -
The more I see people ranting about tab vs space, the more I think people seriously code using paint. Looking at you, tab users.
