Thanks Eric. It works!
However I only get the indended behaviour (tabs are tabs) in new files. Tabs in files created before I unchecked the option you mentioned keep producing 4 spaces. Any clues? Thanks a lot! By the way, I think I sent my mail three times by accident. If you did get it three times, please excuse me. Manuel 2007/2/27, Eric Gorr <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>:
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.
