Apr 23, 2015 at 18:42 | comment | added | kos | @EliahKagan You are right. I've never noticed that. Actually I was convinced it was a problem (altough I still can't type tabs within the editor, but that's another problem). I could have swear I had some troubles pasting tabs... Well, I was wrong. Thanks for pointing that out | |

What problems do tabs cause, exactly? Inside a code block, SE automatically renders tabs as four spaces, and the web-based editor will correctly indent and unindent code that contains tabs when you press Ctrl+K or click {} . For example, code in this post contains tabs, which get rendered seamlessly as four spaces and look fine. (Since the tabs serve to indicate recipe lines in a makefile, rendering them as spaces produces non-working code, which I had to explain in the post. But that doesn't seem related to what you're talking about.)
