EE doesn't convert existing tabs only new ones unless you tell it not to. You can do that from the command line or from the options menu. Still, if this is ee's default behavior, it's Wrong and it should probably be changed. If ee is going to be the easy editor we're giving newbie admins, it should do the right thing as often as possible. rone -- Ron Echeverri Numerical Aerodynamic Simulation Facility DSS/Usenet Administrator NASA Ames Research Center Internet Sysop Mountain View, CA <rone@nas.nasa.gov> x42771 To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-stable" in the body of the message
