If the indentation is made two times (2 times*2 spaces) it will insert a tab instead, so that works, and the tab width is set to 4. What confuses me is that the variable standard-indent is set to 4 (and C Basic Offset is set to Use style settings), but it still indents with two spaces! Isn't standard-indent the right variable to change? I really have no idea of what more could be wrong. The standard-indent is said to be 4 by default, but it indented with 2 spaces right from the beginning when I had installed Emacs. -Kristofer -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Indentation-settings-problems-tp25520490p25531038.html Sent from the Emacs - Help mailing list archive at Nabble.com.
