void TEPty::disableOPost(void)
{
  struct termios tios;
  int fd = pty()->slaveFd();

  if(tcgetattr(fd, &tios))
  {
    qWarning("Uh oh.. can't get terminal attributes..");
    return;
  }
  tios.c_oflag &= ~XTABS;
  if(tcsetattr(fd, TCSANOW, &tios))
    qWarning("Uh oh.. can't set terminal attributes..");
}

and called that in TESession::run(). 

Unfortunately mouse still copies spaces not tabs :/

Still trying...
