Question:

In the C bundle I disable indentation by setting

{ decreaseIndentPattern = '(?=not)possible'; increaseIndentPattern = '(?=not)possible'; indentNextLinePattern = '(?=not)possible'; unIndentedLinePattern = '(?=not)possible'; }

This is not disabling it per se.

Now I have this (pipe denotes cursor, \t is a tab):

{ \t| }

As soon as I type any character, the tab disappears. Why?

Because based on your rules above, there is no extra indent after ‘{’, so TextMate corrects that for you.

If you want to disable indent _corrections_ (i.e. change indent while you type) you should set:

{ disableIndentCorrections = 1; }

That said, I write in (Objective-)C(++) and for me the only thing it doesn’t do correctly is brace-less case statements (though it doesn’t get in the way there either).

I should probably add that I don’t hard wrap my code.
