- Subject: [jed-users] Simulated tabs without having to use Esc-X ?

I have read the documentation about tabs in this document:
https://www.logikalsolutions.com/wordpress/information-technology/configuring-jed/
I want to use simulated tabs consisting of 4 spaces in all files
that I edit via Jed, without exception.
I don't want to manually perform the Esc-X sequence described
in that documentation in each buffer that I edit, and I want
to force the use of 4-space simulated tabs by means of one or
more commands within the Jed configuration files.
And to be clear, I want the result to always be that no
Ctrl-I characters ever appear in any of my Jed-edited text,
and that all tabbing is implemented via the use of spaces.
However, I can't figure out from that documentation how to
force such space-character-implemented tabbing via any kind of
function call or configuration in the Jed config files.
Is there any way to do this in Jed, or am I stuck with having
to rely on the manual Esc-X sequence in each buffer that I
am editing?
