+-- To replace N spaces with tabs, we match the last N spaces before the start of
+-- the actual code and replace them with a tab.
+-- We repeat this until we can't find any more spaces before the code.
+-- The problem we encounter with this method is that if we have less than N
+-- remaining spaces, those will end up at the start of the line.
+-- Eg:
+-- int main() {
+-- __printf("Hello world\n");
+-- ___return 0;
+-- }
+--
+-- Becomes
+-- int main() {
+-- #printf("Hello world\n");
+-- _#return 0;
+-- }
+--
+-- Instead of
+-- int main() {
+-- #printf("Hello world\n");
+-- #_return 0;
+-- }
+-- With regex we could do something like
+-- `regex.gsub("(^(?: {2})*)(?: {2})", "\\1\t")`
+-- but the implementation of `regex.gsub` is very slow.
+--
+-- The workaround is to find the longest possible repetition of N*X spaces and
+-- use that information to replace the longest repetition of spaces starting
+-- from the beginning of the line, then the second longest...
