Hi Erik, Erik (Thursday, 2008-03-27): > I wonder how to set constant width for tabs in editors (KatePart).

There seems to be some misunderstanding of what 'tabs' are. A tab character (\t) causes the editor to align the text following it to the next 'possible position'. Each editor can 'decide' how far the distance of these positions in columns is - that's called 'tab width' (which you can change in every good editor, of course also in kate). It's only a 'view' thing, not something that's stored in the document itself - the document only stores a tab character for every time you press the 'Tab' key. Now what you're probably looking for is to use spaces instead of using the tab character at all. There is an option for that in kate as well.
