Assuming everybody is using the 8 space tab (I saw it in all the files I
examined today), something like this would do:

texp () {
    TMPFILE=$(mktemp tmp.XXXXXX)
    expand -t 8 $1 > $TMPFILE
    mv -f $TMPFILE $1
}

for i in $(find -name "*.c"); do texp $i; done
for i in $(find -name "*.h"); do texp $i; done



However, this is of no help if developers don't configure their editors
to expand spaces by default, which I think is quite difiicult to achieve.

Would be a good idea too to enforce this tab expansion policy with a SVN
submit filter, but that's beyond by knowledge.
