In the configuration of Eclipse under Quickstart, some settings could be changed to conform to the Drupal coding standards by default. More specifically, it would involve changing the following in the 'preferences' menu:
Under PHP > codestyle > formatter, the tab policy should be set to 'spaces' and '2'.
Under PHP > editor > save actions, 'remove trailing whitespace' should be checked, and set to 'all lines'.
They are small things to do manually, but I think coding quality could benefit from setting these as defaults.
Kind regards,
Gijs.
