TABS(V)  −  PWB/UNIX 6/15/72

NAME

tabs − set tab stops

SYNOPSIS

"cat /usr/pub/tabs"

DESCRIPTION

Printing this file on a suitable terminal sets tab stops every 8 columns.  Suitable terminals include the Teletype model 37 and the GE TermiNet 300.  These tab stop settings are desirable because UNIX assumes them in calculating delays.
