It would be nice this happens also when the file was recognized as a Makefile. But can simply change the indent type per file with Document->Indent Type->Tabs. Maybe this get improved in the future to force Tab indentation for Makefiles. > if it could recognise a rules file by the shebang line. I just added shebang detection for "make" in current SVN version. So, Debian's rules files are detected as Makefiles. But you can also achieve this by changing the filetype extensions. Create a file ~/.geany/filetype_extensions.conf and add the following two lines: [Extensions] Make=*.mak;*.mk;GNUmakefile;makefile;Makefile;makefile.*;Makefile.*;rules; (note the last pattern "rules", details about this can be found in the manual) Then restart Geany and it should detect the rules file as a Makefile.
