5/17 emacsexpert: I am using emacs in text mode. When I use tab to indent
(only) the the first line of a new paragraph, it always uses the first
space (i.e. the beginning of the 2nd word) on the last line of the
last paragraph as the tab stop, even though that is not what the
manual say about indent-relative. I have the same behavior even in
Parindent mode. I can turn this off only by going into fundamental
mode, but then I lose the other feature of text mode and this also
seems contrary to what the Emacs manual say about the various text
modes. Did I misunderstand the manual? What's the right way to do it?
\_ There's a blank line between paragraphs.
\_ Yes there is, but even if I remove it, the problem remains.
\_ you misunderstand the manual. use C-q TAB or create a keybinding
for tab-to-tab-stop and use that for indenting. |
