In this scenario, the editor needs to understand Go formatting and apply special formatting to tabs within struct fields? I strongly discourage this. It will also make structs look TERRIBLE when viewed as plain text (witness the large corpus of C code which is only legible when viewed at a specific tab width because their authors used this approach). Go's current hard-tab predilection works currently because tabs are always starting at a constant left offset (0) from the start of line; this is not the case in struct fields, variable declarations, etc. Please don't do this. Or make it an opt-in. This is not a good change to force on users by default. - Dave -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "golang-nuts" group.
