I'm not sure of the details, but have you tried:
:set noexpandtab
:retab!
(Note the '!' on the end of the retab line). This has the
disadvantage that it will use tabs throughout the line rather than
just at the start. If you want to just use tabs for indenting, you
can do:
execute '[EMAIL PROTECTED]( \{'.&ts.'}\)[EMAIL PROTECTED]("\t",
len(submatch(0))/'.&ts.')@'
(I have this mapped to the command :RetabIndents)
