[Pydev-code] Problem with indentation

[İsmail D. <is...@na...>]

Hi;

I am trying to mimic emacs' tab indentation behaviour. Consider the
following snippet:

def foo():
    bar = 0
    baz = 0

now if I place the cursor before baz and press tab key it adds another
tab which results in;

def foo():
    bar = 0
        baz = 0

which doesn't look correct. What I expected would be no change in
spacing. Eclipse call this behaviour "Fix indentation" (CTRL-I by
default). It only indents when necessary it doesn't blindly add tabs.

Is there a way to get this behaviour in pydev?

Thanks.

Not currently (aside from using Ctrl+I), please report that as a
feature request (should not be difficult to do).
