\subsection mddox_code_blocks Code Block Indentation
+Markdown allows both a single tab or 4 spaces to start a code block.
+Since doxygen already replaces tabs by spaces before doing Markdown
+processing, the effect will only be same if TAB_SIZE in the config file
+has been set to 4. When it is set to a higher value spaces will be
+present in the code block. A lower value will prevent a single tab to be
+interpreted as the start of a code block.
+
With Markdown any block that is indented by 4 spaces (and 8 spaces
inside lists) is treated as a code block. This indentation amount
is absolute, i.e. counting from the start of the line.
