I'm not the brightest bulb in the box, so perhaps it's just me, but tr
seems kind of a complicated way to do this.  I don't even see how to use
it for that.  If I wanted to change all of the files that I have that
are tabbed for 8 stops and change them to 3, to me it seems easier to just
do:

untab -t 8 *.e
tab -t 3 *.e

Yup that would do it (it would be nicer if it could do the directories
recursively).

Yea, that would do it, slightly more cumbersome to use.
