Code Style: Indentation settings? about circuitjs1 HOT 3 OPEN

I prefer tabs set to 8, with 4 space indent. (spaces only is OK.) That is what all the java code originally used. I think that got messed up somewhere. Perhaps Iain was using different settings, or maybe I was using the wrong settings in eclipse for a while.

Adding a .editorconfig file to the repository could help people get the settings right. VS Code just recently got the ability to separately set the indent width and the tab width. Unfortunately the EditorConfig plugin seems unable to set these settings correctly for now (editorconfig/editorconfig-vscode#346), but at least I can set them manually to correctly render the Java files.

Also, VS Code will not automatically merge 8 spaces into a tab. This could be done with an automatic replace-on-save action, but that would affect the entire file, not just changed parts. Guess we will have to live with inconsistent spacing.

But since you said that spaces only are fine for you, we can probably close this issue. Or leave it open until a working .editorconfig has been commited.
