http://wiki.freepascal.org/Coding_style - "There are no formal standards"
for FCL and other packages distributed with FPC. So I use Lazarus and
Embarcadero coding guides.


No formal standard does not mean that you can change code formatting as you
want.
The modus operandi is to adhere to the formatting of the surrounding code.

I will do whole work again as Romans want if Romans pay me.


Patches with formatting changes are very likely to be rejected in code that
belongs to the FPC project (can't speak about Lazarus here) and for the
compiler itself it is even nearly assured.

Sven
