This is instead a defcustom. Could this be turned into a global minor mode, for example with something l= ike (define-minor-mode indent-tabs-mode "test" :global t :variable indent-tabs-mode) If so then I think it should be done, because the current situation is a bit confusing. The minor modes without commands to turn them on that was mentioned was: =E2=80=98adaptive-fill-mode=E2=80=99 =E2=80=98auto-hscroll-mode=E2=80=99 =E2=80=98indent-tabs-mode=E2=80=99 =E2=80=98shift-select-mode=E2=80=99 =E2=80=98ediff-word-mode=E2=80=99
