Concatenate to a list of string another string

The below code gives back a list of String but I want it work on multiple cases. The problem is that I can't create the same exact result with recursion.
The program gives back the following result:



replaceTabs 6 ["thello world"]

=> [" hello world"]


Now this should work with a longer list like:



replaceTabs 6 ["asd dsa","thello world"]

=> ["asd dsa"," hello world"]


Simple concat doesn't work, because it will give back undefined pattern.



replaceTab' :: Int -> [[Char]] -> [Char]
replaceTab' n [[x]] =
if x == 't' then replicate n ' '
else [x]

replaceTabs :: Int -> [String]-> [String]
replaceTabs n [""] = [""]
replaceTabs n (x:xs) = (return . concat $ [replaceTab' n [a] | a <- (map (:) (x))])

          This



          replaceTab' :: Int -> [[Char]] -> [Char]


          is the same as,



          replaceTab' :: Int -> [String] -> String


          What you should focus on is implementing a function,



          replaceTab :: Int -> String -> String


          which "fixes" a single String. Then replaceTabs is simply,



          replaceTabs :: Int -> [String] -> [String]
          replaceTabs n = map (replaceTab n)
