I do not see the difference: we try to do that, of course. > LilyPond code has not done this for years Then that's probably largely my fault. Sorry. So somehow we unconsciously arrived at some status quo, but how can that be taken for a guideline or policy? When Han-Wen and I wrote most code [using Emacs] indentation was fine implicitly. All other code and patches went through our hands and so they were fine too. When I did not have the time to maintain that and to fix other sloppiness that Emacs' cc-mode does not fix, I wrote fixcc and ran that once in a while. When I stopped doing that, I failed to communicate this procedure, possibly I assumed this was known (I even seem to remember I had to point to the existance of this script although it is in our source tree), and I assumed that people knew we are a GNU project (it's on our front page).
