There is also &softtabstop. (Actually *it* is the one that contains how many spaces *TAB* inserts, &shiftwidth is for other things like `<` or `>` normal commands.) But it defaults to zero (noexpandtab tabstop=2 shiftwidth=2 softtabstop=0 will make <TAB> insert 2-wide tab) and I forgot that Python ftplugin modifies default. > > # vim: set noexpandtab tabstop=2 shiftwidth=2: > >> Default shiftwidth for Python files is 4 (which is &tabstop * 2 with >> your settings, so two tabs).
