it's trivial to set

        :set ts=4

to have VI (vim) use every fourth console column for a tab stop,
but displaying things via LESS or MUTT, everything is still at 8
chars.

is there a way to set TABS=4 globally? (badly-behaved programs
may hardwire it into their code, but who, using debian, condones
badly-behaved code? :)

maybe something via readline (~/.inputrc)? an environmental
variable? surely there's a way...
