I use Kate too, and the indentation changed slightly in KDE 4. In the
configure dialogue window, go down to the Editing section in the left
menu and set the number of spaces to use in both the General tab (under
Tabulators) and the Indentation tab (under Indentation Properties. If
they are both different then you have to hit the tab key 4 times in
order for your spaces to be replaced by a tab character.
