scala code format

Hi all,
Not strictly a language question but I wanted to know if there is a de-facto code formatting style for scala - or do people generally just wing it to make their code look pretty (or not, as the case might be)?

I ask because at my day job our team is very obsessive about making sure that all our Java code goes through checkstyle and we set up our IDEs to conform to the same formatting rules.

I more or less inherit the ideas from Java; not sure about spaces between type and value parameters, and in folds, do I need a space between two parens; the rest is kind of standard (at least for a Java programmer).

I usually use 2 spaces of indentation (default eclipse value). I also try as much as possible to have a line contain max 80 characters, but I guess that's personal and also depends on your screen size.
