To: Emacs
I'm currently using
GNU Emacs 23.3.1 (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 2.24.10 on
Ubuntu 12.04, but expect to have to also use --no-window-system
("console mode") on occassion.
I have used emacs extensively in the distant past (up 'til 2008), so
am re-acquainting myself with the system.
I have much legacy python code that has "hard tabs" and to meet
the python style guides, will have to be converted to "soft tabs".
I.E. TAB => " "
I also need to configure emacs so that TAB (or Ctrl-i) inserts four
spaces instead of the TAB character.
I currently have this in my .emacs [code]
(add-hook 'python-mode-hook
'(lambda ()
(turn-on-font-lock)
(setq default-tab-width 4)
(setq tab-width 4)
(imenu-add-menubar-index)
(setq imenu-sort-function 'imenu--sort-by-name)))
[/code]
I'd welcome any and all advice, pointers to previous discussion
would are solicited.
thanks

To remove tabs, make the whole buffer the region:
C-x h
then run untabify:
M-x untabify

Thank you. That was very simple. I note from 'help that
'default-tab-width is obsolete.
cheers

You might also want: (setq indent-tabs-mode nil)
