I use windows this big all the time. Small font, large window.

I was wondering about this too.

I agree.

Now for a totally new question. (Wow! Fab!)

I'm in the somewhat disgusting position of having to use both emacs
and vi, at various times, on the same source files. I've got emacs set up
so that it does all the right things (well, almost all) with my C code.
When I go to vi, emacs, of course, has frobbed all the tabs into various
weird tab/space combinations, making things quite messy. I'm then forced
into using spaces exclusively in vi, which sucks. My question is: Has
anyone written a post-frobnicator in E-lisp which spits out nicely formatted
C code (based upon all the C-mode variable settings) with tabs?

Thanks!
