 Delete converts tabs to spaces as it moves back.
 \\{perl-mode-map}
 Variables controlling indentation style:
- perl-tab-always-indent
+ `perl-tab-always-indent'
     Non-nil means TAB in Perl mode should always indent the current line,
     regardless of where in the line point is when the TAB command is used.
- perl-tab-to-comment
+ `perl-tab-to-comment'
     Non-nil means that for lines which don't need indenting, TAB will
     either delete an empty comment, indent an existing comment, move 
     to end-of-line, or if at end-of-line already, create a new comment.
- perl-nochange
+ `perl-nochange'
     Lines starting with this regular expression are not auto-indented.
- perl-indent-level
+ `perl-indent-level'
     Indentation of Perl statements within surrounding block.
     The surrounding block's indentation is the indentation
     of the line on which the open-brace appears.
- perl-continued-statement-offset
+ `perl-continued-statement-offset'
     Extra indentation given to a substatement, such as the
     then-clause of an if or body of a while.
- perl-continued-brace-offset
+ `perl-continued-brace-offset'
     Extra indentation given to a brace that starts a substatement.
     This is in addition to `perl-continued-statement-offset'.
- perl-brace-offset
+ `perl-brace-offset'
     Extra indentation for line if it starts with an open brace.
- perl-brace-imaginary-offset
+ `perl-brace-imaginary-offset'
     An open brace following other text is treated as if it were
     this far to the right of the start of its line.
- perl-label-offset
+ `perl-label-offset'
     Extra indentation for line that is a label.
+ `perl-indent-continued-arguments'
+    Offset of argument lines relative to usual indentation.
