Might it make more sense to rather compile the editorconfig file into the respective editor's config file? That way you need not depend on a plugin being written for the editor. This would mean that you could support more editors and enhance editor configurations without having to wait for the plugin to update to support your own new features. This would be at the cost of the ease of simply editing a single file, tho…
EditorConfig

Then this would mean that you would have to compile this for every editor anyone editing the code base chose to use. It also means someone editing the code would have to manually copy the config file into the correct location. This kills the fact that EditorConfig plugins can automatically change settings per project, which is where a lot of the usefulness comes from IMO.

#35It's been a while since I found something immediately useful for me a this thing. Thank you so much.
I use Emacs but I hate with passion configuring it. Not anymore :)

Re: EditorConfig
#37If your favorite editor does not yet have an EditorConfig plugin, feel free to tweet @EditorConfig or open an issue.
The Eclipse plugin has a small bounty on it right now. Maybe someone will create one if some more money is pitched in: https://freedomsponsors.org/issue/271/support-eclipse

There is a community-contributed EditorConfig NetBeans plugin but it doesn't have a license or installation instructions: https://github.com/geertjanw/editorconfig-netbeans

Hmm, I can see the pink ears, the blue eyes not so much. I may need to calibrate my monitor.

#40I loved EditorConfig until tools like clang-format[1] and gofmt[2] showed up. Combine those with Git's hooks and you really got something. [1]: http://clang.llvm.org/docs/ClangFormat.html [2]: https://golang.org/cmd/gofmt/
Scalariform is pretty awesome too: https://github.com/mdr/scalariform
