Hi Emacs users,
I am defining a derived mode as described in the elisp manual under "Example
Major Modes". I am doing the following:
(define-derived-mode mandoku-view-mode org-mode "mandoku-view"
"a mode to view mandoku files
\\{mandoku-view-mode-map}"
(setq case-fold-search nil)
(set (make-local-variable 'tab-with) 30)
)
I expect this to set the tab-width in all buffers with this mode to the
value 30. However, the value stays at 8 as before. Could some kind soul
please tell me what I am doing wrong?
All the best,
Chris
