pep-8

We follow pep8 mostly. Line-length however is not something we obsess about. Make your lines as long as you need. We also ignore smaller style issues. If you use PyLint, these are some of the ignores you'll find in the codebase:

# pylint: disable=w0122
# pylint: disable=w0123
# pylint: disable=w0141
# pylint: disable=w0613
# pylint: disable=C0326

What do those mean?

code	meaning	controversial?
w0122	Use of exec	depends, we will try to provide an alternative if possible
w0123	eval-used	depends, we will try to provide an alternative if possible
w0141	Used builtin function	this means you might have used map or filter
w0613	unused-argument	often the context argmenent in draw_buttons is unused..
C0326	bad-whitespace	sometimes whitespace in comma separated content is a bit annoying..
