I hate multiple spaces in source code when a single tab does the job
of indenting the code just fine. If you prefer a level of
indentation for tabs other than your editor's default (and I
understand your preference if you're using any of the linux utils
that think 8 spaces is the perfect indention), please take one
minute to change your editor's default to your preference (that's
why it is a user-editable setting).

Please convert your spaces into tabs if you think anyone will ever
want/need to edit your code.
