A couple of questions/thoughts on modelines[1]: 1) Should emacs (and other) modelines be added to the generated modelines at [1], e.g., setq as mentioned by Zawinski[2]?
2) In the absence of any other user preference, what is the Wireshark recommendation on modeline settings, if any? The following seems to be the default settings generated at [1], so am I right to assume that would be the recommendation - at least for files with all (or mostly) spaces and tabs? /* * Editor modelines - http://www.wireshark.org/tools/modelines.html * * Local variables: * c-basic-offset: 4 * tab-width: 8 * indent-tabs-mode: nil * End: * * vi: set shiftwidth=4 tabstop=8 expandtab: * :indentSize=4:tabSize=8:noTabs=true: */ And for files with all (or mostly) tabs instead of spaces, would the recommendation be to stick with tabs and adjust the modelines above slightly as follows: /* * Editor modelines - http://www.wireshark.org/tools/modelines.html * * Local variables: * c-basic-offset: 4 * tab-width: 8 * indent-tabs-mode: t * End: * * vi: set shiftwidth=4 tabstop=8 noexpandtab: * :indentSize=4:tabSize=8:noTabs=false: */ Thanks. - Chris [1] http://www.wireshark.org/tools/modelines.html [2] http://www.jwz.org/doc/tabs-vs-spaces.html ___________________________________________________________________________ Sent via: Wireshark-dev mailing list <wireshark-dev@wireshark.org> Archives: http://www.wireshark.org/lists/wireshark-dev Unsubscribe: https://wireshark.org/mailman/options/wireshark-dev mailto:wireshark-dev-requ...@wireshark.org?subject=unsubscribe
