+*** Smart Tabs
+    Indent with tabs and align with spaces. Installing the package
+    here but it's enabled on a per-language basis in the languages'

+    [[help:smart-tabs-insinuate][smart-tabs-insinuate]] enables smart tabs for a particular language,
+    but also it will only be used when [[help:indent-tabs-mode][indent-tabs-mode]] is
+    non-nil. The following function wraps up setting
+    ~indent-tabs-mode~ and enabling smart tabs for the language into
+    one thing:
+
+    #+begin_src emacs-lisp
+      (defun enable-smart-tabs (lang hook)
+        "Enable smart tabs for lang (even if indent-tabs-mode is nil by default)"

+    #+begin_src emacs-lisp
+      (enable-smart-tabs 'c 'c-mode-hook)
