Wat sou die beste manier wees om "tab" se brute te stel na 4 spasies?
Perhaps it is easiest to hit M-i? That should be pretty close to what
you want, except that it goes to a multiple of 8 spaces instead of 4.
But you can change the variable tab-stop-list:
(setq tab-stop-list '(4 8 12 ...))
Please expand the "..." appropriately. I'm too lazy to do the
arithmetic myself ;-)
But I don't recommend to rely on this. Emacs supports syntax-driven
indentation which can often be configured to your liking for the
language you're working in. Syntax-driven indentation is really
useful for catching silly syntax errors such as a missing closing
brace.
P.S.
Ek skryf in Afrikaans (alhoewel daar niks vout is met my Engels nie) en
wonder of ek daarmee kan wegkom (Dalk is daar Nederlanders hier?),
sedert ek gesien het dat mense selfs in Japannees skryf.
