In Visual Studio I turn on the feature to see whitespaces and non visible characters, just because every now and then, for some ungodly reason, someone in the project, somewhere, in every C# project I've ever worked on, will somehow open the file differently (seriously wtf? we all use Visual Studio!) and goof up a file somewhere, or there's people who instead of hitting tab, will manually insert spaces in a way that doesn't match Visual Studio's own format.



I’ll use Visual Studio when you pry my cold dead fingers off of my Vim keyboard. Since Ogg used square rock and Eagg used triangle rock to carve messages we’ve fought over editors. I fall into the camp a of formatter should do the presentation. But I also fall into the { } would be nice for Python.


Most likely copy-pasting code from somewhere else that doesn't use the same convention.
