I have some C++ code with annoyingly many spaces of indentation. I want to replace the leading 8 spaces with 4. If I use eight of the regular expression [:space:]?, as
[:space:]?[:space:]?[:space:]?[:space:]?[:space:]?[:space:]?[:space:]? and replace with say four of them, the find button in the find command (Control F) finds every space, not just the 8 space instances. I want only to replace instances of 8 spaces with 4 spaces. How do I do this? (I was just told about the regular expression to match the beginning of a line, so I do know about that.)
