Thank you very much!
I changed it slightly to use indent-rigidly:

(defun indent-line-or-region ()
   "indent line or region"
   (interactive)
   (if mark-active ;; there is a region selected
       (indent-rigidly (region-beginning) (region-end) 4)
     (indent-according-to-mode))) ;; indent line

Is there a way to make it keep the region? Now after I press tab the
region is lost so I can't repeat the indentation without reselecting
the region.
