Coding style

[Adam Rooke]

First off, sorry for not contributing anything for the last few months but have been pretty busy. On study leave now though, so that leaves me lots of time :-) Nice to see that pyroom has still be progressing.

I think it would be a could idea if we modified the code so that it follows some of the standards suggested here: http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/ so that we get a consistent style throughout that is consistent with other applications. This includes consistently using an_variable or AnVariable - we mix both throughout - I'm particularly guilty!

Any thoughts?

Why not starting a PEP-008 branch out of trunk, and merge it when the PEP it's fine?

This script might help checking source code:

Pylint helps a lot, too:

$ sudo apt-get install pylint

I have tried to make the code that I have dealt with conformant. This includes formatting all of the default themes. I definitely think all of our code shoulde be internally consistent and as close to PEP-0008 as possible.
