[lug] vi/eclipse copy and paste indent issue

Occasionally when copy-n-pasting my code from eclipse into a vi window 
on a client's remote server I get strange indenting. The first line may 
be correct, but then there's about 50 spaces on the next one, then 100 
on the next one (relative to the first line) and 150, wash rinse and 
repeat for each line.

I'd blame it on space vs tab in eclipse but that's far too extreme to be 
a 4 space vs tab issue. Has anyone run into this problem before and/or 
know what I might be able to do to fix it?

TIA,

John
