In your preferences (probably in a section called Editor Default) make sure that 'Auto-expand tabs' is turned off. I'm guessing it is turned on and it would appear this preference controls the behavior you are seeing.

Hi,

I'd like to ask you a question about the tabulations.

When I click the tab [->|] key, the cursor (or the text) moves 4 spaces to the right. However, it's not a \t what is inserted, but 4 spaces. If I want the cursor leftwards I need to hit the <- arrow four times (and not one!) to get to the point where the cursor was before. See my point?

Is there any way to disable this behaviour? I would like to get a tab when I hit the tab key and not four spaces.

Thank you for any hint you may give me.

Cheers, Manuel
