I've been searching around, but the term vimrc sts has yet to lead me to an actual explanation of the value. Many people talk about using it for tabs/indenting, but what does it stand for? Is it soft tabs?

I don't like blindly placing things in my .vimrc file without knowing exactly what they do.

(sts) makes spaces feel like tabs (like deleting)
