;;; Commentary:

;; Commands to optimize spaces to tabs or expand tabs to spaces in a region
;; (`tabify' and `untabify').  The variable tab-width does the obvious.

;;; Code:

;;;###autoload
(defun untabify (start end)
  "Convert all tabs in region to multiple spaces, preserving columns.
Called non-interactively, the region is specified by arguments
START and END, rather than by the position of point and mark.
The variable `tab-width' controls the spacing of tab stops."
  (interactive "r")
  (save-excursion
    (save-restriction
      (narrow-to-region (point-min) end)
      (goto-char start)
      (while (search-forward "\t" nil t)	; faster than re-search
	(forward-char -1)
	(let ((tab-beg (point))
	      (indent-tabs-mode nil)
	      column)
	  (skip-chars-forward "\t")
	  (setq column (current-column))
	  (delete-region tab-beg (point))
	  (indent-to column))))))

(defvar tabify-regexp " [ \t]+"
  "Regexp matching whitespace that tabify should consider.
Usually this will be \" [ \\t]+\" to match a space followed by whitespace.
\"^\\t* [ \\t]+\" is also useful, for tabifying only initial whitespace.")

;;;###autoload
(defun tabify (start end)
  "Convert multiple spaces in region to tabs when possible.
A group of spaces is partially replaced by tabs
when this can be done without changing the column they end at.
Called non-interactively, the region is specified by arguments
START and END, rather than by the position of point and mark.
The variable `tab-width' controls the spacing of tab stops."
  (interactive "r")
  (save-excursion
    (save-restriction
      ;; Include the beginning of the line in the narrowing
      ;; since otherwise it will throw off current-column.

      (goto-char start)
      (let ((indent-tabs-mode t))

          ;; The region between (match-beginning 0) and (match-end 0) is just
          ;; spacing which we want to adjust to use TABs where possible.
          (let ((end-col (current-column))

            (if (= (/ end-col tab-width) (/ beg-col tab-width))
                ;; The spacing (after some leading TABs which we wouldn't
                ;; want to touch anyway) does not straddle a TAB boundary,
                ;; so it neither contains a TAB, nor will we be able to use
                ;; a TAB here anyway: there's nothing to do.
