* How to change indenting from spaces to tabs? @ 2008-08-13 10:16 TriKri 2008-08-13 16:23 ` Drew Adams 2008-08-13 18:33 ` Eli Zaretskii 0 siblings, 2 replies; 3+ messages in thread From: TriKri @ 2008-08-13 10:16 UTC (permalink / raw) To: Help-gnu-emacs Hello! Programming C, Emacs indents by inserting 4 spaces for each indent depth. Now, surrendering to the rules of the OpenOCD project, indenting should be done by inserting 1 tab instead of 4 spaces, where the tab width should be set to 4. How can I make Emacs indent using tabs, and possibly also changing the tab width? /Kristofer -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/How-to-change-indenting-from-spaces-to-tabs--tp18922383p18922383.html Sent from the Emacs - Help mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

(setq-default indent-tabs-mode t) (setq default-tab-width 4) Or perhaps set these only for the mode you want (put in the mode hook): (setq indent-tabs-mode t tab-width 4) The Emacs manual is your friend. Use `i' to look up keywords (such as `tab' and `width') in the index. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread

There's a large section on interactive customization of C Mode indentation in the CC Mode manual. I recommend to read it. ^ permalink raw reply [flat|nested] 3+ messages in thread
