Is there some way to tell Geany to use tabs for indentation when "Makefile" is selected as the Filetype in Document menu?
Hmm, Geany should use Tabs for Makefiles already since Geany 0.14. Since 0.15, Geany should auto-detect the used indentation type when opening files, this is especially for Makefiles as they are always using Tabs.
Just make sure that you have enabled the option "Detect from file" in the preferences dialog, Editor tab.
But, I disabled that because sometimes I get a (cpp or php) file from someone else and it has mixed tabs and spaces and I want Geany to 'fix' it to spaces on saving.
