tabstop should never be set to anything other than 8.

GNU/Emacs freak.

Quote:
You really should be using what vim calls 'softtabstop' (along with 'shiftwidth'), which allows you to edit as though a tabstop is 2 spaces, but leaves the tabstop definition at the standard 8 spaces.

Nope, just "tabstop=2 shiftwidth=2". Interesting idea, though.

Quote:
I really hope you also have 'expandtab' set (which, for the non-vim users, turns tab stops to spaces).

Nope.

See, I find it useful for indents to be one character. It helps me find matching indents better when they span a screen's worth of data.
