Is there a possibility with NotePad++ to selectively say you want to insert spaces when pressing the TAB key, depending on the file extension?
Currently, I only see one general setting for this: all file extensions are handled equally.
However, when for instance editing makefiles, you don't want spaces inserted when pressing the TAB key. For this kind of files, a "real" tab insertion is necessary.
