umm... well i got my editor to display spaces and tabs differently (tabs with an arrow) so i can see where i've accidentally used spaces.

thanks anyway

No cigar... not even close...

from __future__ import with_statement

with open ('perforce_plugin.py', 'r+w') as fh:
   fixed_tabs = fh.read().expandtabs(4)
   fh.seek(0)
   fh.write(fixed_tabs)

*expandtabs*(s, tabsize=8)
   expandtabs
   <http://pydoc.org/1.6/string.html#-expandtabs>(s [,tabsize]) -> string
       Return a copy of the string s with all tab characters replaced
   by the appropriate number of spaces, depending on the current
   column, and the tabsize (default 8).
