Terry J. Reedy added the comment:

Questions about how to use python (or Idle) are better directed to python-list 
or similar forums. In this case, you are asking how to edit a file with tabs in 
Idle, which converts tabs to spaces on entry. Idle editor windows have a Format 
menu with Tabify and Untabify options, both of which allow you to select the 
conversion between tabs and spaces. I personally would untabify the file first 
and edit. You could re-tabify at the end if needed. Or just edit (with spaces) 
and tabify the new stuff at the end.
