TDE won't do so unless you explicitly tell it to. And it has various optional tab settings (see TDE.CFG) as well as the "-t" (e.g. "-t4") cmdline option.

Of course, there are a billion other editors too. (CWS has also been heavily polishing off his "ED", too.) See http://www.texteditors.org for more info.
