Maybe I cant remember right, but IIRC any IDE in use there (same ones as outside, there's nothing special) had a setting for tabs vs. spaces / indentation size

Maybe I cant remember right, but IIRC any IDE in use there (same ones as outside, there's nothing special) had a setting for tabs vs. spaces / indentation size And yes, that doesn't help you if ex. your style is a blank line following every code line. In practice, it works, I surmise because people are fine with someone else's code being in a different style, but they want to write in their style.
