Interesting. On my Mac the tabs display in the Viewer's editor as single
spaces.  My Win7 box shows the squares.  Didn't test Linux.  Definitely
looks like a font issue, though I think that the best solution is to just
make the Viewer's editor accept tabs - maybe even have the option to
specify how much indentation a "tab" gives or to even switch between using
tabs or using spaces.  This wouldn't be far from existing programmer-level
editors.
