Perhaps it is easiest to hit M-i? That should be pretty close to what you want, except that it goes to a multiple of 8 spaces instead of 4. But you can change the variable tab-stop-list: (setq tab-stop-list '(4 8 12 ...)) Please expand the "..." appropriately. I'm too lazy to do the arithmetic myself ;-) But I don't recommend to rely on this. Emacs supports syntax-driven indentation which can often be configured to your liking for the language you're working in. Syntax-driven indentation is really useful for catching silly syntax errors such as a missing closing brace. > P.S. > Ek skryf in Afrikaans (alhoewel daar niks vout is met my Engels nie) en > wonder of ek daarmee kan wegkom (Dalk is daar Nederlanders hier?), > sedert ek gesien het dat mense selfs in Japannees skryf. I'm not sure if I understand the above paragraph, but I'm trying. But I haven't seen many Japanese postings, except for Spam perhaps. Kai
