Thanks a lot.
I add (setq indent-tabs-mode nil) to .emacs, and Emacs uses no
tabs. But it inserts only 2 spaces!
Then I add this (googled from internet) to .emacs:
(defun my-c++-mode-hook ()
(c-set-style "k&r")
(setq tab-width 8)
(setq c-basic-offset 8)
(define-key c++-mode-map "\C-m" 'reindent-then-newline-and-indent)
(define-key c++-mode-map "\C-ce" 'c-comment-edit)
(setq c++-auto-hungry-initial-state 'none)
(setq c++-delete-function 'backward-delete-char)
(setq c++-tab-always-indent t)
(setq c-indent-level 8)
(setq c-continued-statement-offset 8)
(setq c++-empty-arglist-indent 8))
(add-hook 'c++-mode-hook 'my-c++-mode-hook)
It works. But becase I konw little about lisp,
it is Greek to me. :-(
How can I start to learn lisp?
