Summary: Tabs are messed up

Initial Comment:
Idlefork is not honoring the tab setting in my 
configuration. It is inserting a tab character, rather 
than spaces. Also, the column count indicator in the 
bottom right corner is incorrect because it doesn't 
appear to be counting tabs.

This seems to have broken fairly recently, but I don't 
know exactly when. The current CVS is definitely 
broken. I'm on Win98 with Python 2.2.1.

I can still reproduce this problem. I'm using the latest 
from CVS. I deleted my .idlerc directory. I can open 
aboutDialog.py, hit tab and get a tab character with a 
spacing of 8 column positions, instead of the tab key 
inserting 4 spaces as specified by the default 
configuration. Here are the contents of my config-main.cfg 
file:

[EditorWindow]
height = 40
font = Courier New
font-size = 10

Can't reproduce this from current cvs on linux. If you have
been running successive cvs versions you should try
completely deleting your .idlerc directory and all its
contents as the structure of the config files has been
changing/stabilising over time. Try that and see if you can
reproduce still.
