Yes, but that might not be what you really want. Assuming you've got tab-width set to 3, a tab extends to the next column which is a multiple of 3. So if you had this in a buffer a<tab>b it would look like this: a b If you replaced the tab with three spaces, you'd end up with this a b. I suggest you do this: C-x h (to mark the entire buffer) followed by M-x untabify. > Thank you very much.
