Spaces work better.  Hitting the TAB key in my Emacs will auto-indent
the current line.  Only spaces will be used for fill.  The worst thing
you can do is mix the two regardless of how you feel about tab vs
space.

The next step in evil is to give tab actual significance like in
make.

Xah Lee is getting better at trolling.  He might fill up Google's
storage.
