I pressed it by accident !

Type this:
:help i<CTRL-P>
(using control and p)
That gives you help for insert mode control-p.
Which is what you're looking for :)
I just worked that one out. I think I learn something new about Vim
every day. Perhaps that's why I'm such a zealot ! (but being quiet)

No. I refuse ;)
Well I just do a quick :%s/\ \ \ \ /\t/g on files with spaces (I have it
mapped :)
Vim (and I think emacs) add extra spaces to suit their indentation
preferences. My tab width is 4, but Vim is set up to indent some things
slightly differently, so sometimes it needs to do 6 and adds a couple of
spaces. I don't know if it saves these (probably does) but this probably
messes things up a good deal.
