@fiore HOLY SHIT GNU STYLE IN THE WILD
@reia ITS NOT EVEN PROPER GNU STYLE THE INDENTATION IS ALL WRONG
@fiore the most uni moment of all time
@twinspin6 @fiore I dig the font though.
@SuperDicq @phnt @reia have you SEEN it .
@SuperDicq @phnt @reia its bad because half tabs are not a thing so if u do gnu style u have to use spaces .
@SuperDicq @fiore @reia It is ugly and inconsistent which leads to more brain processing needed to parse something as simple as indentation. The half-indentation also fucks with my brain way too much since I like 1 tab/8 spaces for indentation.
Like look at this monstrosity
Like look at this monstrosity
#include <stdio.h>
int
main (void)
{
int i = 1;
if (i == 1)
{
printf ("Hello world!\n");
return 0;
}
else if (i != 1)
{
printf ("unreachable\n");
return 1;
}
}
@fiore @phnt @reia @SuperDicq GNU style is readability equivalent of putting more than one space between words, punctuation, etc.
@newt @fiore @reia @SuperDicq Imagine needing to emulate another editor to perfect your own editor. The state of emacs.
emacs has no text editor, tho with enough lisping some emac users have managed to cobble vim emulation as a feature of the emacs operating system.
@SuperDicq @fiore @reia tab = 8 spaces has been the standard after typewriters became obsolete and is standard in UNIX since BSD KNF which is documented K&R. GNU Emacs tab width default is also 8.
