How to convert indentation to space in Vim ?
asked on
I typed following command in vim to show white space characters, such as eol, tab, and space.
:set listchars=eol:$,nbsp:_,tab
The file was cloned from git repository. Indentation is setup for tabs. How do I convert indentation to space?
50 addtask listtasks$
51 do_listtasks[nostamp] = "1"$
52 python do_listtasks() {$
53 >-import sys$
54 print('Hello World')$
55 >-for e in bb.data.keys(d):$
56 >->-if d.getVarFlag(e, 'task', False):$
57 >->->-bb.plain("%s" % e)$
58 }$
