Tabs into spaces [message #1238062]

In the past I was using Ultra Edit to edit my post processor in TCL.
But now I have to use eclipse to edit.
Here is the problem. In Ultra Edit I could hit the TAB-Button and a space-character has been added automatically.
Can this be down in eclipse too? If yes how can i modify the settings to do so.
I found a clou for programming Java but not for TCL.
For any help i'll be very thankful.

I think I may have what you are looking for. This is the path I follow, however it may be slightly different depending on the platform you have.

Prefferences>General>Editors>Text Editors

There will be a list of options, one of them says, "Insert spaces for tabs". Check this one.
