Hi John, I set tab-width to 8, but Octave mode does not care about this. Then I tell it to indent (say, M-C-q), it uses tabs of two spaces, which is _not_ nice. regards, Vladimir John W. Eaton wrote:

Looking at other Emacs programming modes, I don't see that this is the common way to define indentation widths, so I don't see why Octave mode should do it. BTW, are you setting tab-width to something other than 8? I think that is almost always the wrong thing to do, because then if you share your files with someone else who doesn't know what your special tab-width setting is, the file will likely look garbled. jwe
