Hello!
Is there a way to configure the C/C++ editor to do the following?
1) When starting a new scope/indentation level, indent 2 spaces.
2) When hitting tab at the end of a statement (such as to left-align line
comments), indent 8 spaces.
3) Insert spaces rather than tab characters in the source file.
I tried setting 'Displayed tab width:' to 2 and selecting "Insert space
for tabs". That covers #1 and #3, but #2 doesn't work.
Also, this causes files that do contain tabs to look goofy, since line
comments were left-aligned assuming tabs would appear as 8 spaces.
I am trying to move from a different editor that I have configured this
way.
