I guess I am not up to speed, either. After writing my previous post 5 minutes ago, I found this one. So, OK. I read the man page for mcedit and I find these things are indeed discussed there. But, alas. Where exactly is the place in the menu where one can toggle these changes, and how can one get there? Specifically, I can not find the way to such a thing as Editor - Options - General... [ ] Visible tabs from within the editor itself (which would be really nice to have, by the way, because then one could toggle this while editing a file). I also can not seem to find it using F9 and going through the list on the top bar. I see Left and File and Options and Right and under none of these am I able to find an item labelled Editor. This leaves me feeling a bit frustrated, as well as, possibly, foolish... Theodore Kilgore ___ mc mailing list http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc

Load a file from mc into the internal editor - press F9, right hand side, Options...3rd or 4th down..Visible Tabs...toggle using spacebar. -- Cheers ___ mc mailing list http://mail.gnome.org/mailman/listinfo/mc
