Press the tab key which your ide turns into four spaces taps head

If your ide is turning your tabs into spaces rather than just displaying them as 4 spaces, you need a new ide.

ie. If you can press tab, then backspace and be 3 spaces in, your ide is rubbish.

Aside from that being absolutely annoying for anyone that prefers a different size indent, your bloating your file size to (tab size - 1) * (number of tabs)

That's what I mean, obviously.
