It is obvious when you know how it is working, but neither the page on 'window' says anything about it, nor man rio mentions tabstop. Besides, I also wondered in a followup, why acme repeats the code in rio to figure out the value for tabstop? Is it intended to run outside of rio? The code seems to be just copied from rio.c. The confusion has come from the fact that by default sam uses 8 spaces per tab, rio uses 4 spaces for tab. And nowhere in the documentation (besides the sources) could I easily find how to affect it.
