- I want to modify the _default_ value for tab-stop-list from an
- interval of 8,16,24,... to 4,8,12,...
-
- I know this can be done interactively using M-x edit-tab-stops,
- but I'd prefer to actually change the default.
-
- Can you please tell me how to go about this? I think I should be
- specifying a default value in my .emacs file, but the syntax escapes
- me.
-
- Thanks.
