Please define a style guide for this repo

[mbrukman]

I'm a bit confused as to the preferred style guide in this repo, e.g.,

• library.py has 2-space indent
• www/*.js appear to have 4-space indent but also have tabs
• www/*.html also have tabs

I'm fine with 2-space indent everywhere, though traditional Python style guide is 4-space indent, but to each their own.

Once that's defined, we can fix existing files (presumably, we don't want a mix of spaces + tabs) and encode them into an EditorConfig file to make it automatic for everyone.

Yeah, this is what comes of writing the files across three computers each with their own unique Emacs configurations.

Until now I haven't really worked with other programmers outside of a company setting, so haven't worried about it too much, and I've never heard of EditorConfig. I'm slightly wary of adding a second configuration language to my Emacs, but that's probably not too costly overall.

I think I'd say 2-space indent everywhere, I tend to find 4-space uses up too much horizontal space. I'll figure out what I need to change so that emacs stops adding tabs into HTML and JavaScript files.
