ok, sorry but I am not fluent in english and I understood just now
what's not working:
I use tab to expand and to indent the code.
The .emacs file you can see above makes me do both by typing tab but
sometimes there is a bug and it's impossible to use tab to expand,
instead of expanding the name of a function I am writing, it will
write "Indenting region... done".

I looked for many way to use tab to expand, for example I tried to
understand this page:
http://emacsblog.org/2007/03/12/tab-completion-everywhere/
but with no success. :-(

I am under Mac OS X and I don't know how to expand, that's why I am
looking for a way to use tab to increment (by default) and to expand
as well...

How could I set a keyboard short cut to expand instead of trying to
find a way to use tab for doing both ?

Thanks,
Vincent.
