I think it's generally PEP8, but we haven't all been sticking to it (many of us were new to python when we started on this ;).

Althought I use vim all the time for chirp I mainly use sublime.
This might be interesting:

also I want to look into flake8 ;)

In my defense, it appears that the chirp.py indenting is inconsistent.
My vim settings for this project expanded tabs, which I took to be the
correct choice (as it appears to be the dominant style in the code).
However, chirp.py contains lots of tabs, thus the mismatch apparent in
the above hunk.

Assuming that spaces are to be preferred to tabs, I can create an
additional patch to convert all tabs to spaces, giving the indentation
the consistency that it needs.  More generally, does CHIRP have a style
guide that I can reference?

Cheers,
