Hi Rick - I recently tried to gather some of the more common preferences for formatting perl code in the Koha community and put together this perltidyrc file: http://git.koha.org/cgi-bin/gitweb.cgi?p=Koha;a=blob;f=xt/perltidyrc It might be a good starting point for discussing formatting preferences for Koha code. I try to use it for code I contribute, though I most certainly have forgotten sometimes. I'm not sure about the origin or the accuracy of the particular comment you pointed out. -Andy _______________________________________________ Koha-devel mailing list Koha-devel@lists.koha.org http://lists.koha.org/mailman/listinfo/koha-devel
