There are multiple tools that will automatically fix this across an entire codebase in seconds. Heck, a sed 1 liner would do it if you want to DIY it. Another nail rather a reason it it's own right, and I've looked at these 'automatic tools' and until there is one that does not enforce their own views of code style they are just another nail ... it's bad enough when tidy TABBED code gets messed up by someone replacing them all with multiple spaces because that is 'the proper way to do it' ... this is long established coding style issue not simply automatic edits to code that IS working perfectly already. It does not 'fixing' simply because some people don't like it ... -- Lester Caine - G8HFL ----------------------------- Contact - https://lsces.co.uk/wiki/?page=contact L.S.Caine Electronic Services - https://lsces.co.uk EnquirySolve - https://enquirysolve.com/ Model Engineers Digital Workshop - https://medw.co.uk Rainbow Digital Media - https://rainbowdigitalmedia.co.uk
