For a very long time, I thought tabs were the way to go. It provided the most compatible coding style between my languages (Lua, C, Assembly, etc.) The only sticking point was JavaScript, which used spaces.

Sure, you could ensure your encoding type, but that's an extra step you shouldn't have to do.
