Tabs
----
-The current code uses tabs, not spaces. Keep whitespace usage
-consistent between files. New files should use tabs. Space is
-sometimes used for indentation in Python code. Tab stop should for this
-reason be set to 4.
+For legacy reasons, all leading whitespace should be tabs. All internal
+whitespace should be regular spaces. Set tab stop to 4 to calculate line
+width.
Line-Wrapping
