IDLE's "untabify" feature (required by IDLE 2.6 when running from IDLE)
seems to do the job correctly but this function doesn't inspire trust
and might damage the code, because IDLE 2.6 is not able to correctly
display mixed spaces and tabs (maybe for a reason linked to python 3 but
I didn't find it in the logs, so maybe it's just a bug) and because of
the default value given by the dialog, quite frightening: 4 spaces for a
tab, instead of 8. By giving 8 the problem seems to be solved, even for
IDLE 2.6.

Maybe IDLE 2.6 is assuming by default that a tab is 4 spaces?
