Fixing up on the meacs lisp modes is not necessary. I quote from the
emacs manual:

    Tabs vs. Spaces
    ===============

       Emacs normally uses both tabs and spaces to indent lines.  If you
    prefer, all indentation can be made from spaces only.  To request this,
    set `indent-tabs-mode' to `nil'.  This is a per-buffer variable;
    altering the variable affects only the current buffer, but there is a
    default value which you can change as well.  *Note Locals::.

       There are also commands to convert tabs to spaces or vice versa,
    always preserving the columns of all nonblank text.  `M-x tabify' scans
    the region for sequences of spaces, and converts sequences of at least
    three spaces to tabs if that can be done without changing indentation.
    `M-x untabify' changes all tabs in the region to appropriate numbers of
    spaces.
