This causes problems because fake half tabs are in fact tabsize/2 space characters, and as anyone who has ever indented source code knows: either use tabs, or spaces, but make up your mind, else havoc is guaranteed. I find it especially unwise to propagate such a counterproductive setting as default. I think Fake Half Tabs would be much better turned off -- whether people use tabs or spaces, and how many of them is a wholly different issue altogether. }}}" enhancement new minor Future Releases mcedit master gotar@… no branch
