C-c '

C-c '

[Henri-Paul Indiogine]

Greetings!

I noticed something strange when I edit a block of source code using C-c '.

Each time I close the editor, using C-c '  the code block shift 2
places to the right.  That is, 2 black spaces are added at the
beginning of each line.  Each time I edit a code block this happens
again.  So, each time I edit a code block the code shifts to the right
more and more.

I waste a lot of time getting rid of these empty spaces.  Yes, I can
use a emacs macro, but still ..

Am I missing something?

Thanks,
Henri-Paul

Hi Henri-Paul,

It's not supposed to do that.  It is supposed to indent by 2 spaces and
then remove those 2 spaces in C-c ' again.

There's a variable (that I just found out about yesterday -- Thanks
Nick!) which will turn this indentation off completely.

Try setting 

(setq org-src-preserve-indentation t)

and see if that helps.

Please provide details of your org mode version (M-x org-version RET)
and emacs version (M-x emacs-version RET)

Regards,
Bernt

Yes, that removed the problem.   I am running the daily git version on
GNU Emacs 24.0.50.1.

Thanks,

FWIW: The first C-c ' C-c ' cycle adds two spaces of indent, but it
stays at two after subsequent cycles.

I have org-src-preserve-indentation set to nil.

Org-mode version 7.7 (release_7.7.205.gce02a)
