    Vim tabs

    Hello all.

    How could I edit my vim config file so that tabs (when c programming) take just 4 spaces?

    Off hand, I'm not sure, but give this URL a shot.

    My wager is that you'll find what you're looking for somewhere in there.

    I dug this out of my .gvimrc, bet it's the same for .vimrc

    set softtabstop=4
    set shiftwidth=4
