Another very nifty option would be to include indentation conversion:
The removal of any mixed tab+spaces indentation, and perhaps conversion
to all tabs or all spaces. The "Official" Standard now is all spaces,
but
all tabs works much better in the IDE, and most Mac Editors, so that's
what I use on the Mac.
