Indentation errors, whitespace, spelling

[GoogleCodeExporter]

Checking syntax of files using (e.g. in the Python3 directory):
> python -c "import shapefile3"

Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<string>", line 1, in <module>
  File "shapefile3.py", line 772
    def __init__(self, shapefile=None, shapeType=POINT, autoBalance=1):
                                                                      ^

I've fixed up the indentation to consistently use tabs. I've also removed any 
extra whitespace and the end of lines, and corrected some spelling mistakes.

The python community has settled on 4 spaces for indentation which is detailed 
in pep8 at http://www.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0008/

Any chance we could change to the more common 4 spaces instead of tabs?
