Tab Size

Andrew Lawson
Hello
        I'm convinced I'm being stupid but where can I change the editor
tab size? 8 spaces is far too many for me :)

SmalltalkWorkspace defaultTabWidth: 4

does the trick for me...

... especially since I found out that I can get an IdeaSpace
to close the current card via a keyboard shortcut: Just add
#(#closeCard 'ALT+DOWN') to the array returned in
IdeaSpaceShell class>>defaultAdditionalAccelerators
and use ALT+LEFT/RIGHT/DOWN for working with the tabbed views.

Hussah.

There's also a User Preference entry for it, albeit well hidden :-)

DevelopmentSystem/workspaceClass/defaultTabWidth

Yes, probably too well hidden. I think it should probably be reflected up
into the Smalltalk Workspace options which sets options for the Smalltalk
Workspace shell, not necessarily all workspaces, although usually it does.
We'll add an enhancement patch in PL1 (#2010).

    Yes, I'm sorted now but I must admit to this being a bit too well
hidden for me, not that I spent that long searching. On the positive
side I've just spent a couple of hours testing old libs and deploying a
couple of my applications from X6. about 70% of the libs (mine and those
from the usual suspects) work without change, in a couple of cases I had
to fiddle with loose methods that now exist by default. All in all not
much hassle. Congratulations.
