I think running
tabs -N(whereNis you preferred tab size) in the terminal should work. This is what I use in my zshrc on desktop.Yup, they seem to be pretty opinionated here. If you look at the source there is just an inlined style with a single rule
pre { tab-size: 8 }. I guess that is what you get when you use opinionated tools. The user's browser isn't right, my preference is right!On Firefox this uses my default tab size of 4. But I guess changing this default isn't user-friendly.
You can't count it as good when it is unconfigurable when it happens to use your preference when the whole selling point of tabs is that they're configurable.
I don't understand what you are trying to say. I agree that SourceHut forcing their preference isn't good. The other two are configurable and I have configured them to my preference on my machines.
You made it sound like Firefox wasn't configurable, my bad. I thought you were saying you didn't care that it wasn't configurable because you liked the width they chose.
Oh no. It is configurable, although it requires editing
userContent.css. So barely configurable. I think it defaults to 8 but I reduce it to 4.
