Hi All, I haven’t found an answer yet to this question via google or tutor archives. For those of you who use emacs as an editor, I have the following problem. I have edited my .emacs file to have
(add-hook 'python-mode-hook (lambda () (setq indent-tabs-mode t) (setq tab-width 4) (setq python-indent 4))) which sets my “tab” to 4 spaces. However, if I have a line that is too long (more than 80 characters), I often break the line in multiple lines and use “tab” to align them, eg. params.update({'MAX_T':iv.nt,'ENSEMBLE_ID':ens_base, 'MOM_MBS_MAX':'0', 'BARYON_DB':mbs_dir+'/'+mbs, }) In this case, the “tab” alignment does not make it an integer number of 4 spaces - so when I try and edit the file on a different machine, with another editor (TextWrangler) that does actually put all tabs to 4 spaces, I end up breaking my files often. Does anyone know how to get emacs to force “tab” to stay at integer numbers of 4 spaces with these multi-lines?
