Fellow Eclipse users, (you can ignore this email if you are not one):
Eclipse is great and has all the goodies I need in an open source,
code completing, block collapsing IDE. I finally have it fully
configured for and would like to use it for PHP, Python, etc. But
there is one fatal flaw: I can't seem to find a way to change tab to
spaces. I need specifically to change tab to three spaces, (so that
when I type tab, I get three spaces). The code is much cleaner this
way and there are many current and possible future clients who require
this. I have tried both Eclipse 3.1 and 3.2 and do not find this
feature. Please tell me how to change this setting, or, if possible
an easy work around. Please don't tell me about the "Displayed tab
width" setting. This is for display only and does not effect the
actual text. Sorry if I sound upset, it's because I am frustrated
with this huge oversight and/or sloppily excluded feature.

I did find that PyDev does have the three spaces replace the tab setting
I need. But this doesn't solve my PHP issue.
<sarcasm>Perhaps when an over abundance of time magically appears I can
hack the source code for the php-ide plug in.</sarcasm>
<crickets>Any more suggestions?</crickets>
Thank you for bottom posting, the top posting can be confusing.
