can you be more specific about the strange formatting?
1. A tabstop of 3 is very odd.
2. Even with the tabstop of 3 the code is a bit unusual.
Here's how the code looks in a default editor, more(1),
printed to paper/converted to PDF,
etc. Hard to read, and I think few would guess a tabstop of 3
That guessing was pure trial and error (8, 4, 2, 3!) with VS code
that lets you easily change it (other editors will for sure do that
too). The default "tab width guessing" mode of VS Code failed
("guessed" 8).
When the right tabstop of 3 is used, I'd agree with Albrecht, the
code is still oddly formatted.
[lots of good stuff elided]
The reader expects the code to be indented flush left in a
"stair-step" pattern
as per the code flow, and only comments indented far out to
the right.
Thanks, Greg, well put. I couldn't have said it better.
