Sorry if this is a very basic question - I admit to being a
less-than-sophisticated emacs user ....
I have tried to set up my .emacs file so that the basic offset
quantity for both C and Java code is 4 spaces. Works fine when
I edit just Java code, but when I start editting C as well c-basic-offset
seems to jump unpredictably (to me , anyway) between 4 and 2.
Simple answer???
Thanks for any help,
_Rich

;; Emacs's default text selection mode and cut-and-paste key bindings differ
from the CUA standard used by Windows. (Hardly surprising, as Emacs
antedates both CUA and Windows). If you prefer the CUA mode (as I do), you
can configure Emacs to emulate CUA mode. To do this, first copy the package
cua-mode.el into your Emacs site directory (see step 6 above). Then, insert
the following code into your .emacs file (see step 5 above).
