NAME

6       Perl::Critic::Policy::CodeLayout::ProhibitHardTabs
7

DESCRIPTION

9       Putting hard tabs in your source code (or POD) is one of the worst
10       things you can do to your co-workers and colleagues, especially if
11       those tabs are anywhere other than a leading position.  Because various
12       applications and devices represent tabs differently, they can cause you
13       code to look vastly different to other people.  Any decent editor can
14       be configured to expand tabs into spaces.  Perl::Tidy also does this
15       for you.
16
17       This Policy catches all tabs in your source code, including POD,
18       quotes, and HEREDOCS.  The contents of the "__DATA__" section are not
19       examined.
20

CONFIGURATION

22       Tabs in a leading position are allowed, but if you want to forbid all
23       tabs everywhere, put this to your .perlcriticrc file:
24
25           [CodeLayout::ProhibitHardTabs]
26           allow_leading_tabs = 0
27

NOTES

29       Beware that Perl::Critic may report the location of the string that
30       contains the tab, not the actual location of the tab, so you may need
31       to do some hunting.  I'll try and fix this in the future.
