I am looking for the equivalent of c-indent-level and ruby-indent-level, for asm-mode. That is, I want to force the indentation to 4 spaces, and I want them to be replaced with blanks.

What I've seen tells me it does not exist for asm-mode. Could someone please tell me this is wrong?

I tried this also: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/69934/set-4-space-indent-in-emacs-in-text-mode , to no av.

I have tried:

(setq tab-width 4)
(setq indent-line-function 'insert-tab)
(setq asm-indent-level 4)

This works however:

(custom-set-variables
 '(tab-stop-list (quote (4 8 12 16 20 24 28 32 36 40 44 48 52 56 60 64 68 72 76 80 84 88 92 96 100 104 108 112 116 120))))

But I wonder if there is a way to define that for asm-mode only. What if I wanted to keep the default tab behaviour for other modes?
