Are there any Visual Studio add-ins for true 'smart tabs'?

Question

Hello.

'Smart Tabs' concept allows to automatically insert tab character for block indentation and space characters for in-block formatting. It's described here. Unfortunately, Visual Studio's 'smart tabs' option in text editor settings just indents text on enter press. Same name, completely different and near useless thing :). So, maybe someone knows of a visual studio addin that can change how 'tab' key work so it will insert tab characters and space characters according to rules mentioned above? Any hints are welcome.

Update: I need it for C++. According to comments, ReSharper can do something like this, but only for Basic and C#.

Answer 1

ReSharper does this pretty well, and is highly configurable.

Answer 2

Have you looked at Visual Assist?

It's been a while since I used it (back on VC++ 6.0!), and I can't see a mention of "Smart Tabs" on the home page, but it might be there somewhere.

Answer 3

If no one comes up with an "as-you-type" utility, then Astyle with its convert-tabs and indent=tab options will reformat code after-the-fact.
