indentation mode inserts tabs, but elm compiler does not accept tabs

[dandrake]

I've enabled Elm indent mode with elm-indent-mode, but it's using tabs for indentation, and when I compile, I get:

I ran into a tab, but tabs are not allowed in Elm files.

I'm using Elm 0.19.1.

If the compiler truly refuses to accept tabs, shouldn't elm-mode avoid using them?

Thanks.

I've had the same problem. Are you using the nightly emacs builds? I am, and for some reason it's changed the behaviour of indent-tabs-mode:

It used to work such that declaring (indent-tabs-mode nil) would turn off indent-tabs-mode. However a recent change only turns it off if it is set to a negative number, so nil now turns it on.

I had a call to indent-tabs-mode in my .emacs which started to turn it on automatically. I modified that, and now everything's working fine again.

Ah, that did the trick -- it was set to t in my emacs, and toggling it off via Customize (which sets it to nil for me) did the trick. (I'm using emacs 27.1.)
