I try to avoid aligning things unless not doing it really hurts
readability for that reason. For example, in most of my source files, I
use tabs to indent. Since Python won't allow a mix of tabs and spaces
(for whitespace) on one line, I don't try to align things:
else:
self.x264_cmd = [
self.x264_exe, self.avs_file,
'--fps', self.fpsr,
'--sar', self.sar,
'--crf', self.crf,
'--level', self.level,
'--keyint', self.ki,
'--min-keyint', self.minki,
'--ref', self.ref,
'--weightp', self.weightp,
'--bframes', self.bframes,
'--b-adapt', self.badapt,
'--me', self.me,
'--merange', self.merange,
'--direct', self.direct,
'--trellis', self.trellis,
'--subme', self.subme,
'--deblock', self.deblock,
'--output', self.video_output
]
But it's still very readable.
However, when alignment really matters, such as in a module's setup.py,
spaces are the way to go:
from distutils.core import setup
setup(
name = 'Elucidation',
version = '0.0.1-WIP',
py_modules = ['elucidation'],
author = 'Andrew Berg',
author_email = 'baha...@digital-signal.net',
url = '',
platforms = 'Windows',
description = 'Provides a class for storing information on
multimedia files that are to be converted or remuxed and methods to
convert and remux using popular tools.'
)
Of everything I've read on tabs vs. spaces, this is what makes the most
sense to me:
