string, or a tuple of strings to look for.

^ .expandtabs([`tabsize`])
Returns a copy of the string, with all tab characters replaced
by one or more spaces, depending on the specified tabsize.
The string is divided up into columns, each of which is as wide
as the given tabsize. After every part of the string that is not
a tab character, the current column is filled up with one or
more spaces, until the next column 'border' is reached.
! Every character that is not a tab, newline or return, will be
treated as being one position wide, even if they are not
displayed when printing the entire string.
tabsize::
**Optional.** The amount of spaces that a tab character
should be replaced with, at most. Defaults to 8.
