“inconsistent use of tabs and spaces in indentation”

Question

I\'m trying to create an application in Python 3.2 and I use tabs all the time for indentation, but even the editor changes some of them into spaces and then print out \"inc

Answer 1

Solving this using Vim editor

1. Open terminal (Ctrl + Alt + T).
2. Go to the directory where the file is located (cd ). Ex: cd /home/vineeshvs/work.
3. Open the file in Vim (vim ). Ex: vim myfile.txt .
4. [Optional step] Enable search keyword highlighting in Vim (ESC :set hlsearch)
5. Go to the line where you have this problem (ESC :). Ex: :53 in Vim editor after pressing ESC button once.
6. Replace tabs using the required number of spaces in Vim (:.,$s/\t//gc). Ex: Tab will be replaced with four spaces using the following command: :.,$s/\t/ /gc after pressing ESC button once). This process is interactive. You may give y to replace the tab with spaces and n to skip a particular replacement. Press ESC when you are done with the required replacements.
