Any ideas? The behaviour you want is implemented by the function tab-to-tab-stop So you need to bind that to a key in ada-mode. I suggest S-tab or C-tab, rather than tab itself: (define-key ada-mode-map [C-tab] 'tab-to-tab-stop) As others have pointed out, the "standard" Ada-mode tab function is extremely useful in normal code. Give it a try, you'll like it eventually :). -- -- Stephe
