| 2025-12-03 01:20:42 +0100 | <geekosaur> | now I'm being reminded of C source code formatted with formfeeds in comments between functions, thanks |

| 2025-12-03 01:19:57 +0100 | <ski> | i also not that seldom divide the source into pages (separated by form feeds) of size between thirtythree and sixtysix lines (c.f. "Riastradh's Lisp Style Rules" <https://mumble.net/~campbell/scheme/style.txt>) |

| 2025-12-03 01:18:38 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <loonycyborg> while in YAML they're illegal altogether |
| 2025-12-03 01:18:27 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <loonycyborg> I think it emits warning if you stick "\t" somewhere already |
| 2025-12-03 01:18:09 +0100 | <geekosaur> | (case in point, brittany's origins — and its demise) |
| 2025-12-03 01:17:47 +0100 | <haskellbridge> | <loonycyborg> if there was one true way then compiler would enforce it :P |
| 2025-12-03 01:17:18 +0100 | <geekosaur> | and you will not convince everyone in the Haskell community to use One True Formatter |
| 2025-12-03 01:17:09 +0100 | <jackdk> | EvanR: Yes, the configurable formatters I'm aware of can store the project config in version control next to the source. |

| 2025-12-03 01:16:54 +0100 | <geekosaur> | my response to said autoformatter fans is that as soon as there's more than one such the purpose is already defeated |
| 2025-12-03 01:16:04 +0100 | <ski> | (exception is if there's no `module ... where' part) |
| 2025-12-03 01:15:29 +0100 | <ski> | of course |
| 2025-12-03 01:15:24 +0100 | lambda_gibbon | (~lambda_gi@2603:7080:ee00:37d8:11e:138e:d914:c117) |

| 2025-12-03 01:13:44 +0100 | ski | indents by two spaces (including the whole module body, from the `where') |
| 2025-12-03 01:13:11 +0100 | <EvanR> | so like project1 is somehow set up with config 1, project 2 config 2 and everyone can actually keep it straight |
| 2025-12-03 01:12:49 +0100 | <EvanR> | really |
| 2025-12-03 01:12:27 +0100 | <jackdk> | (with autoformatter fans, not with you) |
| 2025-12-03 01:12:19 +0100 | <jackdk> | EvanR: I disagree, because you can still maintain consistency within a codebase, which is where I feel it's most important. |
| 2025-12-03 01:12:15 +0100 | <int-e> | I meant adoptation, though both work |
| 2025-12-03 01:11:59 +0100 | <ski> | i would not trust an autoformatter, without closely checking out its opinions |
| 2025-12-03 01:11:57 +0100 | <int-e> | but if you don't have options then you're defeating adaptation :-P |
| 2025-12-03 01:11:20 +0100 | <EvanR> | autoformatter fans I've talked to would say if there are configuration options it's defeating the purpose (to have everyone use the same format) |
| 2025-12-03 01:11:18 +0100 | <ski> | (re tabs vs. spaces, "Yet Another Tabs v. Spaces Debate - I mix tabs and spaces" by dmwit at <http://dmwit.com/tabs/> (also <https://3.bp.blogspot.com/-kX7Gs0lFG_0/V9GIDlF59cI/AAAAAAAAG9E/8OXtloszZRMwd0_NjkWGk6qYedy_0m6jgCL…>) is another opinion) |
| 2025-12-03 01:11:11 +0100 | <ski> | iqubic : <https://github.com/tibbe/haskell-style-guide/blob/master/haskell-style.md> is one resource, that might be useful to check and ponder |

| 2025-12-03 01:09:30 +0100 | <jackdk> | ormolu's choices are mostly well-argued but somehow it manages to emit the least aesthetic code I've seen. this is not just an ormulu problem, btw - it seems that each new nix language formatter discovers new frontiers in uglifying code =(. Regardless, I still use autoformatters in a lot of projects just to avoid having style discussions. If I had the time and inclination, I'd look at twiddling the knobs on fourmolu to do more of what i wanted. |
| 2025-12-03 01:06:22 +0100 | <geekosaur> | likewise fwiw. I think I'd prefer stylish-haskell if someone held a gun to my head and forced me to use a formatter |

| 2025-12-03 00:58:57 +0100 | <EvanR> | I looked at ormolu's output and it didn't match my expectations of style |

| 2025-12-03 00:52:27 +0100 | <iqubic> | Is there anywhere I can go to see what they all do? Is there a comparison anywhere? |
