Thanks a lot for replies. I have two problems now. First is as
follows.

Well, I think I'll prefer ^J as the "default" enter anyway. Having set
it, I've noticed this thing: if you type a '{' then execute newline-
and-indent, it indent one tabs further!

if(a)
   {

   }

Well, this's not my convention, so I tried switching to K&R mode, but
nothing has changed.

My second problem is this: I press tab, emacs inserts a tab character,
then I press backspace, in hopes that emacs will delete tab character,
but instead it goes back one-character space, and leaves many spaces
in place of tab!

I'm really fed up with emacs' understanding of tabs :/
