I indent with spaces... only if automatic

I wont press space-space-space-space. Hell nah.

I tab.

But I save my files indented with spaces instead of tabs. In other words I use soft tabs.

Here are a two reasons why I am doing this:

• Have not encountered an open source project that uses hard tabs
• When using CLI tools to scaffold, the code is indented with spaces

I use emacs and have setup my .php_cs and .jsbeautifyrc to tab with spaces. This way I do not have to press space-space-sp.... ahhh!

For me, "pressing" tab to indent is what's important. Not saving files indented with tabs (though in the back of my mind, I wish tabs replaced spaces completely).
