Set Tabs
Determines whether TAB inserts a tab character, inserts space characters,
or simply moves the cursor.
Settings Effects with TAB
----------------------------------------------------------------------
INSERT (Default.) TAB inserts a tab character at the current
position, pushing the cursor and text beginning with
the current character to the right.
MOVEMENT TAB moves the cursor to the next tab stop on the line
without inserting anything.
SPACES TAB inserts spaces at the current position, instead of
inserting a tab character.
Usage notes:
o Changing the setting does not affect existing tabs. For example,
setting the tab mode to SPACES does not convert existing tab characters
to spaces.
o To replace existing tab characters with spaces, use CONVERT TABS.
o To save your setting for future editing sessions, use SAVE ATTRIBUTES
to create a section file or to create or update a command file---see
help on Attributes.
