For that, I prefer to configure the editor to convert tabs into spaces, so I still use the tab key, as this is faster.

- JohnFen 3y agoI don't always use the same editor, and some of the editors I use can't be configured like that. But I'm curious -- what do you do when you want tabs?
- sneak 3y agoI never want tabs in my files, as tabs render inconsistently across viewing apps. Tab characters are like nondeterministic spaces, so why would I use them? Some things require tabs, like Makefiles. My editor (vim) is smart enough to know this when editing a Makefile and do the right thing.
