   Old school way:

   find . -type f -print0 | xargs -0 sed -i ’s/\t/ /g’

   Hmmm… My first thought was always to use ‘expand’, but it’s clumsy because it doesn’t have an in-place mode:

   for x in `find . -type f`; do expand -t 2 $x > $x.expanded; mv $x.expanded $x; done

   And I suppose that breaks on filenames with spaces. :)
