Is there anyway to set the tab spacing for Xdb? I use a tab of 3 but xdb uses 8. Thank you.

You can convert all tabs in your sources to 3-space-boundaries with "expand -3", and xdb will display what you'd expect to see. Before editing the file, this can be reversed: "unexpand -3". See the expand(1) man-page. We have this problem on file as an enhancement.
