Greetings,
I noticed tab size on sam is 8 characters. This is somewhat standard.
Acme uses 4 (which is perhaps more reasonable in many circumstances). How
can one control the tab size on acme?
Thanks.

set the tabstop environment var in your $home/lib/profile e.g.
tabstop=8

The acme manpage tells me:
Set the $tabstop environment variable.

There's also a Tab command in acme which sets it for the actual window.
Like 'Tab 8'. Please read the documentation and the source before asking
here. (exectab[] has the commands in exec.c)
