You want instead:

wingapi.gApplication.ExecuteCommand('convert-indents-to-spaces-only',indent_size=4)

It's a top-level command, not a per-editor command.  The distinction is a bit hard
to explain but mainly has to do with how these commands are used in the GUI and
how keyboard focus needs to be treated.
