Hi,

I would guess that 'end' indentation is not really the last hurdle.  For TABs 
to work, all places where character math occur will need to be replaced with 
calls to 'current-column'.

Ie - instead of

(- match (match-beginning 0))

You would need

(- match-col (save-excursion (goto-char (match-beginning 0)) (current-column))

Current-column is used in a bunch of places already, so hopefully the number of 
problem areas is small.

Eric

Thanks, the problem is that I am using tabs.  Everything works fine when 
indent-tabs-mode is nil.

However, I would like to use tabs if possible and indentation of the 'end' 
seems to be the only hurdle in supporting this.  So, would a patch on the vein 
of the attached one be acceptable?
