Several of the lines in S50sshd script have a strange mix of spaces
and tabs, that at least do not look consistent with neighboring lines.
This patch makes the spacing consistent, and also strips the trailing
spaces.

I haven't checked if there are such problems, but have you considered
checking all init scripts for the same type of problems and fixing them in
this same patch?

A rough way of finding these scripts is:
find -name "S*"

Thanks,
Thomas

Thomas,

I looked through the other init scripts.  There's some variation, mostly in:

* Tabs vs spacing.
* Where spaces are used instead of tabs, sometimes two spaces are used per
level, other times four.
* Indentation of start/stop under the case "$1"  /  esac clause.
    * Some of the start/stop begin in the first column, aligned with 'case'.
    * Some of them have two spaces, followed by actions offset with a tabs.
    * Some of them have two spaces, followed by actions offset with a
sapces.
    * Some are offset with tab, followed by actions offset with two tabs.

So I took the approach of leaving that part alone, and just fixing the
lines that were offset by a mix of spaces and tabs, since that seemed
clearly bad.

I'd be willing to go through all of them and make them uniform, if
recommended guidelines can be stated with regards to the above variations.
 Tabs are tempting only because it's a single character in text files that
go in the target - otherwise, I'm normally in the tabs-are-evil camp, since
thing which start out with tabs tend get modified with spaces over time,
and because editor rendering of tab width can vary.  So I'd be willing to
go either way.

Thanks for checking. Seems there was more variance than I expected.

I'm not sure what to do here. Unless such init scripts have been
copied from elsewhere (in which making cosmetic changes may be
undesirable), I'm ok with having them changed according to a given
guideline.

Before trying to establish such a guideline, what does the community
think about this?
If there is no consensus in changing, then no need for a guideline.

Thanks,
Thomas

  If it is copied from elsewhere then it probably shouldn't be in 
buildroot, but just copied from elsewhere.

  I guess that's a judgement call for Peter to make.

  Note that we also have this kind of whitespace inconsistencies in e.g. 
support/scripts.
