vim-super-retab

Converts tabs to spaces, or spaces to tabs, and provides a "super retab" command to convert only the whitespace used for indentation in programs.

This is a mirror of VimTip1592

Commands

Command	Description
Space2Tab	Convert spaces to tabs, only in indents.
Tab2Space	Convert tabs to spaces, only in indents.
RetabIndent	Execute Space2Tab (if expandtab is set), or Tab2Space (otherwise).

Features

• The commands allow an argument to specify the column width; if none is given, the tabstop setting is used.
• Redundant spaces in an indent are removed (in the above mapping, converting tabs to spaces will not change lines where there is a space before a tab in the indent).
• The search history is not changed (pressing n will do the same search it would have done before the conversion was performed).
• The cursor position is restored, although the column will be slightly wrong owing to the different number of characters in the indent.
