emacs auto-indentation bug

[Nellis, Kenneth]

Thanx to Achim and Ken for their responses, but especially
to an off-list responder (who may prefer to remain anonymous),
who told me specifically how to disable these (unwanted) 
features. In case this is useful to anyone:

To cause auto-indenting to use spaces instead of tabs:
(setq-default indent-tabs-mode nil)

To disable automatic indentation:
(electric-indent-mode 0)

<opine>I would think one would have to opt-in for these 
features--not opt-out--but that's just me.</opine>
