.Sh DESCRIPTION
|
|
The
|
|
.Nm
|
|
utility displays a series of characters that clear the hardware terminal
|
|
tab settings then initialises tab stops at specified positions, and
|
|
optionally adjusts the margin.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
In the first synopsis form, the tab stops set depend on the command line
|
|
options used, and may be one of the predefined formats or at regular
|
|
intervals.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
In the second synopsis form, tab stops are set at positions
|
|
.Ar n1 , Ar n2 ,
|
|
etc.
|
|
If a position is preceded by a
|
|
.Ql + ,
|
|
it is relative to the previous position set.
|
|
No more than 20 positions may be specified.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
If no tab stops are specified, the
|
|
.Sq standard
|
|
.Tn UNIX
|
|
tab width of 8 is used.
|
|
.Pp
|
|
The options are as follows:
|
|
.Bl -tag -width indent
