Description Florian Thienel CLA 2012-01-05 05:05:55 EST 
Vex should optionally be able to use tabs instead of spaces for indentation. 

(see also bug 367903)
Comment 1 Florian Thienel CLA 2012-01-05 05:06:59 EST 
Implementation hint: this could be done by using DocumentWriter.setIndent('\t').
Comment 2 Florian Thienel CLA 2012-01-05 18:24:54 EST 
We need a preference page to configure the indentation. It also makes sense to put the line width onto this page.
Comment 3 Florian Thienel CLA 2012-01-05 18:28:52 EST 
Preference page and new behaviour implemented: Vex now uses one tab for indentation by default. Alternatively you can select to use spaces using the new preference page.
