What about GUI frames?  I don't want to see a display feature installed
before it is also implemented for the likes of X.

In Emacs, we format code with a mixture of tabs and spaces, using tabs
to indent by whole tab stops and spaces to indent to the desired column,
which is a multiple of 2 columns for most statements or the column after
the opening paren where applicable.  Please also insert a space between
function identifiers and argument lists, and confine all text to 80
columns.

Here you have evidently typed `M-x tabify' with a comment selected.  Do
not insert tabs by whatever means within the body of a comment, although
it is best to indent the body itself with them, whenever possible.

More indentation problems.  Please don't link to Github, and explain
instead the reasoning behind the sequence itself.

Egregious indentation error.
