For real. OP needs to give up on this ridiculous notion of tabbed whitespace and learn to use real, monospaced indentation. How wide is a tab? OP couldn't tell you because tabs are inherently dishonest -- a lie concocted by big keyboard to poison the unwashed programmer masses.

Tabs are one tab character wide, it's perfect

You're one character wide

I meant for my personal projects. For the code that only I see, tabs are much better for navigation. But it's true that if there are several of us working on the project, the spaces are much better.

How wide is a tab? Who cares? I'm not pressing more buttons just to make you feel better.
