[darcs-devel] [issue330] guidance on hacking would be useful

[Dave Love]

New submission from Dave Love <fx at gnu.org>:

I found that the test suite in the unstable branch complains at tabs
in the source.  It might be useful to have a HACKING (or something)
file with guidance on that sort of thing.

You could tell Emacs users to use

  (add-hook 'haskell-mode-hook '(lambda () (setq indent-tabs-mode nil)))

or use <URL:http://www.loveshack.ukfsn.org/emacs/dir-locals.el> or
<URL:http://www.loveshack.ukfsn.org/emacs/indent-tabs-maybe.el> to set
indent-tabs-mode locally.  It could actually be set in local variables
in the Haskell source files, and I guess something similar can be done
for anyone cursed with vi.
