vim expanded tab OFF!!!

:set noet

turns off that pesky softab ughhhh so annoying

trying to follow this tutorial and it was giving me troubles

luke smiths slide show script breaks if you have spaces instead of tabs.

my vimrc was set with softtabs

most of the time i like it because it keeps things consistant

without it i think you could go insane trying to debug python

my vim rc
