elastic tabstops
Hi Nick, I kinda get that the future awaits and all the sins of past TUIs shall be forgiven: http://nickgravgaard.com/elastic-tabstops/ but I think you're pushing the metaphorical heap of cow dung uphill to change the "standard behaviour of tab stops". However, Unicode is large and fullsome of characters, private code planes and future possibilities, and so a new ELASTIC_TAB character is perhaps the way to truly solve this existential crisis which all programmers and markdown authors face. This way, the new super tab shall be semantically unified within itself, and not compromised by existing expectations and semantics, which is probably critically foundational to getting wide support for elastic tabs. Time for someone to talk to someone from Unicode... Regards, Zenaan
