Consider using Rustfmt

Closed this issue · 3 comments

I tried to run clippy to find potential small improvements I could contribute.
However, as hard tabs are used instead of spaces a lot of tabs_in_doc_comments issues are listed which makes it hard to find useful hints.

Using rustfmt the whole code can be formatted easily and in a way that is used for most other Rust projects.

Alternative

If you prefer to keep tabs, you could add a rustfmt.toml with

hard_tabs = true

To suppress the mentioned clippy warning, then #![allow(clippy::tabs_in_doc_comments)] should be added somewhere at the top of main.rs.

Please do switch to using rustfmt, it makes development a lot more comfortable - and especially makes it more comfortable when people start contributing to your project. people have the weirdest formatting concepts when not forced through an autoformatter, otherwise,....

Thanks for the suggestion! I've never looked at this tool, but I'll try configuring it today. :)

As of right now, I'm not going to use rustfmt. I looked through its options and was unable to find settings for several syntax choices that I consider important, some other options were locked behind the nightly channel. It's possible that I might be able to use it once the tool matures a little more.
