* bug#7659: emacs - c mode tab space different between windows and linux @ 2010-12-16 22:50 Anoj Perera 2010-12-17 8:15 ` Eli Zaretskii 0 siblings, 1 reply; 8+ messages in thread From: Anoj Perera @ 2010-12-16 22:50 UTC (permalink / raw) To: 7659 Hi wonder if some one can shed some light on my issue below, don't know if this is a bug or a config problem. I use emacs 23.1 for pretty much every thing from coding to organising the day. Unfortunately I have to use windows at work and linux (Ubuntu 10.04) at home. The source files I create at home in my linux box are formatted quite horribly when viewed in emacs on my Windows machine. The tab spacing seems to have a mind of its own. I made sure tab spacing is the same on both machines from my .emacs file. Many thanks if some could point me in the right direction.

Two questions: . does this happen in "emacs -Q" on both platforms (i.e., do the source files look the same then)? . how exactly did you set tab spacing in your .emacs, on each platform? ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread

Haven't tried the -Q option (without > loading the .emacs file?). Please do. I think you will discover that the display on Ubuntu will then look exactly like that on Windows.

So I think you have some site init file on Ubuntu that sets certain options related to C indentation. "emacs -Q" will bypass the customizations on that file, so you will know this for sure. If this is indeed the case, you should look at your site init file, and do the same on Windows. > I am guessing this is a character encoding issue. No, character encoding doesn't (and cannot) have anything with indentation. It's just that (if my guess is right) on Ubuntu you have some customizations that you need to have on your Windows .emacs, and then you will see the same display. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 8+ messages in thread

I will try and bottom out the configuration file issue.
