Just did a little googling and found this in the lgrind FAQ
My source code doesn't seem to align properly. What am I doing wrong?
LGrind uses by default a proportional font for its output. That's part
of the beauty. However, aligning with spaces doesn't work, since they
are relative horizontal motions. When using tabs, everything is fine. If
the standard tab width of 8 is too big for you, fiddle around with your
editor to save the file with tabwidth 4, say, and then use '-t 4' as an
option to LGrind.
Should I be worried? Will I need to preprocess my python and convert
spaces to tabs?
Also, I did some searching on google groups - it appears you need to
specify the syntax for python. I found this post from 1998
http://groups.google.com/groups?hl=en&lr=&ie=UTF-8&threadm=m3ithlxp2s.fsf%40tern.geology.ubc.ca&rnum=2&prev=/groups%3Fq%3Dlgrind%2520python%26hl%3Den%26lr%3D%26ie%3DUTF-8%26sa%3DN%26tab%3Dwg
Do you have something more recent, or is this what you use?
Thanks!
