Most real editors will bind the Tab key to an indent-line command, instead of 
actually inserting a literal tab (or a fixed number of spaces).  Emacs does 
this by default, and I couldn't live without it.  (And actaully, it even 
works for python and Haskell, where whitespace is sensitive.  It's quite fun 
to see it in action, but I digress...)

However, you will want to set intent-tabs-mode to nil in your .emacs file to 
avoid 8 spaces being auto-replaced with a tab.
