But for it to change just by copying from one folder to another - no! I use -gnaty (default style checks) for my own projects, so I've become accustomed to 3-spaces. Except on Stack Overflow, where Markdown uses a minimum of 4-spaces for code inserts.

Ignore that last - clearly overriding would mean just keying in at less than 3 spaces from LH side. Thank you - adacrypt
