I use XEmacs 20.4, and have no idea about v.21. In my .emacs I have included the lines (add-hook 'c-mode-common-hook '(lambda ( ) (c-toggle-auto-hungry-state 1) (setq c-comment-continuation-stars "*") (setq c-indent-comments-syntactically-p t) (setq c-basic-offset 8) (setq tab-width 8) (setq indent-tabs-mode nil)) 'turn-on-auto-fill) tab-width is the no. of spaces per tab, and setting the variable indent-tabs-mode to nil causes all indentation to be done with spaces. To see an explanation of c-basic-offset do 'C-h C-i cc-mode' and go to the node 'Customizing Indentation'. I am far from savvy re all this, so there may be better solutions.
