Hi, I was just mislead by mg(1) manpage, which mentions no-tab-mode as an available command. But you get it only if you look at source and manually compile with -DNOTAB.
Last time the topic was touched here: http://marc.info/?l=openbsd-tech&m=133727367821401&w=2 > no-tab-mode looks a bit buggy. Especially if you toggle it on/off. > imo, no-tab-mode should get fixed, then the NOTAB's removed. Tried it by compiling with NOTAB, and completely agree - toggling this mode looks weird (tabs turning into ^I escapes and vice versa when pressing a key after switching the mode). While no-tab-mode is not improved and enabled by default, I think it's better to comment it out from manpage, so that less people are looking for non-existing command. Is anybody interested in this mode? If yes, I could look into this at some spare time.
