Editor Settings
MeshKit (and other Fathom projects) use two spaces for indentation (no tabs). Many editors can be configured to use these settings automatically, minimizing the amount of work necessary to keep indentation consistent. Below are descriptions of how to configure this in several popular editors. If you don't see your editor here, feel free to add it.
Eclipse
Go to Window > Preferences > C++ > Code Style, then edit the template Tab sizes and indentation.
- For Java
- Window > Preferences > Java > Code Style > Formatter > Edit > Indentation = "Spaces Only"
- For other editors
- Window > Preferences > Editors > Text Editors > Insert spaces for tabs
- In Eclipse 3.6
- Window > Preferences > General > Editors > Text Editors > Insert spaces for tabs
Emacs
In your .emacs file, add
(setq-default indent-tabs-mode nil) (setq-default c-basic-offset 2)
Gedit
Go to Edit > Preferences > Editor, and
- Set Tab width to 2, and
- Check "Insert spaces instead of tabs"
Vim
In your .vimrc file, add
set expandtab set softtabstop = 2 set shiftwidth = 2
