:[range]ret[ab][!] [-indentonly] [{new-tabstop}]
Replace all sequences of white-space containing a
<Tab> with new strings of white-space using the new
tabstop value given. If you do not specify a new
tabstop size or it is zero, Vim uses the current value
of 'tabstop'.
<Tab> with new strings of white-space using
{new-tabstop}. If you do not specify {new-tabstop} or
it is zero, Vim uses the current value of 'tabstop'.
The current value of 'tabstop' is always used to
compute the width of existing tabs.
With !, Vim also replaces strings of only normal
spaces with tabs where appropriate.
With 'expandtab' on, Vim replaces all tabs with the
appropriate number of spaces.
This command sets 'tabstop' to the new value given,
and if performed on the whole file, which is default,
should not make any visible change.
Careful: This command modifies any <Tab> characters
This command sets 'tabstop' to {new-tabstop} and if
performed on the whole file, which is default, should
not make any visible change.
When [-indentonly] is specified, only the leading
white-space will be targeted. Any other consecutive
white-space will not be changed.
Warning: This command modifies any <Tab> characters
inside of strings in a C program. Use "\t" to avoid
this (that's a good habit anyway).
`:retab!` may also change a sequence of spaces by
