Matthis Thorade 526cb198a4 autopep8 whitespace (#1613)
* autopep8 whitespace only:

--select="E101,W1,W2"

* revert single file: web2py_online.py

Should this be a .py file at all?

* revert file Tickets/1443.py because the diff looked strange:

maybe there is an encoding problem?

* Rename web2py_online.py to web2py_online.rst
