Re: [HACKERS] Indent

Hi Peter,This puzzled me for some time too, I am guessing that you are using
emacs to edit the code, and you are being tripped up by emacs use of 8
spaces for a tab symbol.  You can change the emacs tab width by
configuring the  emacs variable tab-width.  You can do this on the
buffer that you are editing by using C-h v tab-width to pull up a buffer
that allows you to customize the variable, or you can use a hook to
c-mode to set it whenever you are editing a c-file. I have the following
lines in my .emacs file

;;; Set tab-width in c-mode to 4 spaces
(add-hook 'c-mode-hook       (function (lambda () (set tab-width 4))))


I think that there are some other small differences between emacs c-mode
formatting and the indent formatting that PostgreSQL uses, but the
8-space
tab is the only one that I have fixed.
