I hope this will be my last reply. Please take a look at the flash video on the ET website. There he uses two editors (gvim and gedit). And for the last time, tabs are NOT insert tabs into the source code - when you press the TAB key the editor creates a TabStop. TabStops are like what you get in OpenOffice or MS Office for aligning text. As the flash example on the ET website shows - once you save, it replaces the tabstops with spaces so that if you had to open it with another non-ET enabled editor, alignment would still be correct. I've had better conversations with a rock. ;-) Either way, every developer for himself. Use the tools you prefer, it's your right!
