Top Forums UNIX for Dummies Questions & Answers how to change the tab size in vi? Post 19828 by Lexx on Wednesday 17th of April 2002 04:47:58 AM

Hm, now that is strange. Which system and shell are you using? Any strange environment variables set which could affect this (I can't think of any in particular, just look through them)

'rc' files are usually setup files, and ex is an editor which has something in common with vi, I'm not sure what though, as I have never used it. Apparently, vi seems to be based on this one as it's using the same setup file. Someone correct me if this suggestion is wrong.

Greetings,
Lexx
