in thread The One True Style of indentation:

Can you give an example of when having tab as indention makes things look bad?

When an editor has replaced some spaces with tabs, and some not, then you read it on another editor, the result looks very bad.

    But that's doesn't make tabs evil. It just means an evil editor was used.
