Rhide doesn't handle TABs correcly too. It does the first few lines or so
with real TABs, but suddenly it converts it all into spaces, which is very
annoying when you change the tab size or edit it in a different editor,
whatever. It's just very very annoying. Is this normal behaviour, or a wrong
setting?

I use the RHIDE version from the file rhide14b.zip from http://www.delorie.com/
and I downloaded it approx. two months ago. It reports version 1.4, not 1.4.7.
Maybe it omits the last seven, I don't know.

At the moment, I think even EDIT handles TABs better than RHIDE, because
somehow the spaces are converted to TABs when you save it, at least the
_real_ edit, not the fscking edit that comes with WinDOS9x.
