Re: Indentation settings problems

[TriKri <kristoferkrus@hotmail.com>]

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. 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.
