AFAIK, the convention is that you use what the rest (or majority) of the file you're editing uses. This is the policy I've seen advocated for src/, and it seems to make sense for doc/, too. At the moment, I don't think there's anything to document; different documents use different conventions. E.g., the Handbook is tab-indented, but the FAQ is space-indented. I don't know which one's ``right'' and which one's ``wrong''. BTW, David. You're responsible for rev. 1.150 that I mentioned in the commit log: ---------------------------- revision 1.150 date: 2001/03/08 11:01:25; author: obrien; state: Exp; lines: +332 -331 Fix formatting -- people this thing is not indented. ---------------------------- Regards, Dima Dorfman dima@unixfreak.org To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe cvs-all" in the body of the message
