Re: Org not preserving Python indent levels on LaTex export due to tabs

[John Hendy <jw.hendy@gmail.com>]

I think it was very recently added (i.e. yesterday) due to this thread
about a very similar (same) issue:
- http://www.mail-archive.com/emacs-orgmode@gnu.org/msg81203.html

I'd love to update Worg/documentation to include it... out of
curiosity, where were you looking for it to be documented? That way, I
can add it to the most intuitive/popular location.


Thanks,
John
