Thanks all.
The shiftwidth turns out to be what I was looking for. Learning about the
expand command was just an extra bonus ;-)

It's probably not exactly what you want, but take a look at
expand / unexpand. (Do "man expand"...)
You should also considering leaving your tab stops set to 8 in vim and
use vim's shiftwidth setting instead. Then, get used to using ^T and ^D
(in insert mode) instead of ^I.
