Hi,
For a plugin I have to get the number of spaces that is configured for the Tab-character. How do I do this ?

Thanks.

See
org.eclipse.ui.texteditor.AbstractDecoratedTextEditorPrefere nceConstants.EDITOR_TAB_WIDTH.
Note that the Java editor uses it's own preference, so that would not
work there.
