I added the code (setq-default tab-width 4 indent-tabs-mode t) to the file (\AppData\Roaming\.emacs in my user folder in windows) as you said, but it doesn't work. What can be wrong? And why can't I change it through Options->Customize Emacs->Top-level Customization Group? To me it seems like something is wrong if nothing of this works. What does it sound like to you? I also tried pasting the code in my .cpp file, and evaluating it by placing the cursor after it and pressing C-x C-e (now I understand how C-x C-e works by the way). The minibar then displayed t; I guess that should be right. It still didn't work after that; the indentation was two spaces, just as before. The file I'm editing is a C++ file; I guess the indentation should work for those files as well. -Kristofer -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Indentation-settings-problems-tp25520490p25530846.html Sent from the Emacs - Help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
