tabs vs spaces
i hate it when i cant find where i used spaces instead of tabs. just a simple mistake and it doesnt work

me: *codes makefile in codenvy*
terminal: *** missing separator. Stop.

me: *rewrites code exactly the same way in Notepad++*
me: *copy paste code to codenvy*
terminal: *compiles whole project*

wow. just wow.

    @illusion466 I've solved more than one line-ending-related bug thanks to that notepad++ feature

    Not 100% sure but on this topic, does sublime still have the tabs to spaces conversion feature?

    @nickj toolbar icon that looks like paragraph symbol should do the trick.

    Ctrl + F and search for four spaces in a row.
