I hope someone can help with them: * I can't get auto-indentation working. When I open an empty file and press tab, then press enter, the second line is not indented, the cursor is at the beginning of the line. * I want line-by-line scrolling. When I move the cursor at the bottom of the screen and press down, emacs scrolls many lines, rather than a single line. * There's something strange with the way tab works in emacs. In cc mode, I write a few letter then press and nothing happens! I'm not allowed to put tabs anywhere on the file! I also tried editing an empty file and I had no means of getting tab work!!! I just want my tabs back! * And no spaces, only tabs!
