(setq default-tab-width 2)
Even with this setting, I still get monstrous 8-character tabs.
Documentation:
Default value of `tab-width' for buffers that do not override it.
This is the same as (default-value 'tab-width).
Are you using it in a buffer that does *not* overwrite your default
by using some minor mode?
If are in doubt whether your init file ist read in, then make it
start with a
(message "My init file starts here.")
and finish it with:
(message "My init file ends here.")
