"Refactoring" by Martin Fowler :-).  A significant indent level (4 or
8 spaces) shows you when your code is bad because it is squished up
against the right edge of the the screen.

Or just check  :help retab  <grin>.  It changes the indentation level
automatically (it is a conversion between spaces and tabs).
