TAB

 Inserts a tab at the current editing position, according to the current
 tab stops of the buffer and the tab modes.

 Key:  EVE defines the TAB key (or CTRL/I) as TAB.

 Usage notes

 o  To set tab stops, use SET TABS AT or SET TABS EVERY.  Default
    is EVERY 8 (that is, columns 9, 17, 25, 33, 41, and so on).

 o  To find out the current tab stops, use SHOW, or with the WPS keypad,
    press the WPS Ruler key (GOLD-R).

 o  To set tab modes, use SET TABS and specify one of the following:

    INSERT ..... (Default.)  TAB inserts a tab character.
    MOVEMENT ... TAB moves to the next tab stop without inserting anything.
    SPACES ..... TAB inserts spaces instead of a tab character.

 o  To make tab characters visible (appearing as a small HT), use SET TABS
    VISIBLE.  Default is SET TABS INVISIBLE.

 o  Tab stops are not stored in the output file.  Therefore, in printing or
    displaying the file, tab-aligned text may not appear the same as during
    editing, depending on the tab stops set for the printer or display
    device.  You may want to use CONVERT TABS to replace tab characters
    with spaces.

 o  With the WPS keypad, KP8 is defined as Tab Position, to move the cursor
    to the next or previous tab character.  You can define a key for this
    function without enabling the WPS keypad.  For example, the following
    command defines GOLD-TAB as WPS Tab Position:

       Command: DEFINE KEY= GOLD-TAB  WPS KP8

 o  Tab stops are buffer settings---you can set different tab stops for
    each buffer you edit.  Tab mode and visibility are global settings,
    applying in all buffers.
