May be in interesting read for people considering switch of development environment. a friend suggested i should post this here… http://codehunk.wordpress.com/2009/06/27/emacs-repo-for-ruby-webapps/ does a developer’s eye comparison between Rubymine, TextMate and Emacs as RoR development environments.

Carbon Emacs(the one that i use on my mac) was not letting me change the tab-width and had it set as 2 even for C++(some C-h c and C-h c is enough to make you realize that reindent-then-newline-and-indent is the procedure used for indentation, which internally reads variable called <i>indent-line-function</i> to figure out which procedure is to be called. In C/C++ mode it happens to be <i>c-indent-line</i>. To change the depth of indentation, try setting <b>c-basic-offset</b> insteed of tab-width. This is what my C++ mode hook looks like.... <code> (setq-default indent-tabs-mode nil) (defun my-c++-mode-hook () (setq tab-width 4) (setq c-basic-offset 4) (define-key c++-mode-map "\C-m" 'reindent-then-newline-and-indent) (define-key c++-mode-map "\C-ce" 'c-comment-edit) (setq c++-auto-hungry-initial-state 'none) (setq c++-delete-function 'backward-delete-char) (setq c++-tab-always-indent t) (setq c-indent-level 4) (setq c-continued-statement-offset 4) (setq c++-empty-arglist-indent 4)) (defun my-c-mode-hook () (setq tab-width 4) (setq c-basic-offset 4) (define-key c-mode-map "\C-m" 'reindent-then-newline-and-indent) (define-key c-mode-map "\C-ce" 'c-comment-edit) (setq c-auto-hungry-initial-state 'none) (setq c-delete-function 'backward-delete-char) (setq c-tab-always-indent t) (setq c-indent-level 4) (setq c-continued-statement-offset 4) (setq c-brace-offset -4) (setq c-argdecl-indent 0) (setq c-label-offset -4)) (add-hook 'c++-mode-hook 'my-c++-mode-hook) (add-hook 'c-mode-hook 'my-c-mode-hook) </code> At times you want to set different indent-offset for ruby and C++ mode(usually, ruby is 2 and C++/C is 4).
