Ooops, Ernie’s answer made me look deeper, and it’s a bit more complicated. I
forget because I’ve wrapped it up into a couple of macros which I keep in my
~/.vimrc file:
function SpaceTabs(spaces)
exe "set sw=" . a:spaces
exe "set ts=" . a:spaces
exe "set expandtab"
exe "set smarttab"
exe "retab"
endfunction
function TabTabs(stops)
exe "set ts=" . a:stops
exe "set sw=" . a:stops
exe "set noexpandtab"
exe "set nosmarttab”
endfunction
So, “:call SpaceTabs(4)” is roughly equivalent to “expand -t4 < old > new”,
except it works in-place.
