Yes, the format of the garbage indicates that someone has used an
editor with 4-char tab visualisation in the past - the only one I know
that does that is some Microsoft Visual junk.

Tabs have been set every 8 chars since the 1960s on all but early word
processors and MS junk. I don't think there's any controversy in the
real computing world about how ASCII tabs should be formatted on a
fixed-width terminal screen or printer.

However the spaces solution is also fine for new code - anything
as long as it looks ok on normal terminals and all normal editors.
