ktest: Adding editor hints to improve consistency
Emacs and Vi(m) have different styles of dealing with perl syntax which can lead to slightly inconsistent indentation, and makes the code slightly harder to read. Emacs assumes a more perl recommended standard of 4 spaces (1 column) or tab (two column) indentation. Vi(m) tends to favor just normal spaces or tabs depending on what was being used. This gives the basic hinting to Emacs and Vim to do what is expected to be basically consistent. Emacs: - Explicitly flip into perl mode, cperl would require more adjustments Vi(m): - Set softtabs=4 which will flip it over to doing indentation the way you would expect from Emacs Signed-off-by: John 'Warthog9' Hawley (VMware) <warthog9@eaglescrag.net> Signed-off-by: Steven Rostedt (VMware) <rostedt@goodmis.org>
