Adam: Two possibilities: 1) convert each program cell to InputForm (instead of default Standard Form) by selecting the cell and using the menu item Cell>ConvertTo>InputForm 2) use Cell>DefaultInputStyle>InputForm (new cells only will be affected) Tab spaces can be set by selecting the cells, using the menu item Format>Option Inspector... and looking up up TabSpacings.
