Description Johannes Schmid 2007-12-18 20:38:53 UTC 
Anjuta does already support Emacs modelines but we should also support Vim modelines.
Comment 1 Johannes Schmid 2007-12-23 18:43:47 UTC 
There is basic support for the commands:
- [no]expand
- shiftwidth
- softtabwidth

now, but I am not sure if that is enough to support most files with such modelines.
Comment 2 Thomas Wood 2007-12-24 16:20:57 UTC 
I presume you mean "softtabstop", not "softtabwidth".

"tabstop" itself should also be easy to implement.

It would be worth making sure the shortened versions are also supported (i.e. "sw", "sts" and "ts").
Comment 3 Johannes Schmid 2007-12-24 23:26:25 UTC 
OK, added support for sw, sts, ts (and tabstop) as well as for et and noet. Probably the behaviour of sts and ts does not match 100% to what vim does but it should at least not corrupt the file.

Thanks for testing!
Comment 4 Johannes Schmid 2008-01-13 22:38:45 UTC 
Closing this bug report now. Feel free to reopen if you miss a modeline feature that you feel should be supported.
