How To Set Up Your Editor

EditorConfig provides a way to share the same configuration for all major source code editors.

You only need to install the plugin for your editor of choice, and add the following configuration on ~/.editorconfig.

[*]
charset = utf-8
end_of_line = lf
indent_style = space
insert_final_newline = true
trim_trailing_whitespace = true

[*.{cfg,py}]
indent_size = 4

[*.{css,dtml,html,js,pt,xml,zcml,zpt}]
indent_size = 2

[Makefile]
indent_style = tab

dotfiles

Some Plone developers use dotfiles similar to these: plone.dotfiles. This might inspire you with your own dotfiles/configuration settings.
