Surely we should discuss these terms for describing an un-dented indent? http://ask.metafilter.com/7214/The-opposite-of-indent Taken from Wikipedia: "Debates over where to indent, whether to use spaces or tabs, and how many spaces to use are often hotly debated among programmers, leading some to classify indentation as a religious war. Different indentation styles are commonly used. In 2006 a third method of indentation was proposed, called elastic tabstops."
