This ok:

Code:

;my program copy this text until symbol > 13 ! If i get tab my program finish !
;For this reason i changed space to symbol minus 
inc eax---------------------\Cmp eax,10

But if i replace symbol minus to space i get not 21 spaces.
I get couple 09(tabs) and spaces !
I look this in IDA Pro 32 bit.

But why fasm changed space to tab ?! Some times its not good solution !

PS: I write my program and thinked that I've gone crazy ! And my program do somthing wrong ! But not.

I check this.
I open empty fasm 1.73 editor.
Write:

Code:

inc eax                                                     \cmp eax,2

And save text file.
Open this text file in IDA Pro and see couple 09(tabs) and spaces(20h)
But expected see only spaces !

I think you are talking about fasmw, right? That is not fasm BTW, it is the IDE wrapper for fasm.

There is an option in fasmw about "optimal fill on save" or something like that. I don't remember the exact phrase, but look for it and untick it.

I renamed and moved this topic.

Thanks.

Options->Optimal fill on saving unselected check.
And Options->Smart tabulation unselected check.
