Hi Wolfgang,
Huh.. my bad, I actually had my tabs set to 4 on the screen.
Can you at least consider allowing me to use spaces to indent that header file? Placing the entire u-boot environment variables in one string without any indentation of sorts would make that code highly un-readable. And with indents or 8, impossible to fit. But the moment I use space tabs, the tool also complains "please don't use spaces".... I feel sort-of out of options here other than going for a flat un-readable environment variables.
If not, I'll just remove the text indents tabs added for readability and resubmit the patch.
Cheers,
Gilles
