Subject: Howto preserve <tab> key?
Date: Thu, 10 Jul 2008 05:31:18 -0700 (PDT)	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <3ad6d8ff-d10f-42da-97ff-c8d9e5a13106@c58g2000hsc.googlegroups.com> (raw)

I've recently upgrated to GNU emacs 22.1.1. It seems that version 22
has changed the behavior of the <tab> key; more often than not
pressing tab will result in a series of spaces being added rather than
a real tab character. I know I can insert a real tab by way of C-q,
but I'd like for the <tab> key to also exhibit this behavior. I guess
there's a simple solution to my problem, but I can't find an obvious
answer. Help is appreciated.
