[Function]

 

 

Sets the horizontal tab positions. n indicates the number of columns from the head of the

 

line to the position that the horizontal tab is to be set. Because 'n = setting columns

 

position - 1 ' , for an example in which the horizontal tab is to be set at the 9th column, n

 

should be set to 8.

 

k indicates the number of horizontal tab positions to be set. Although the tab positions

 

will be set at positions that are (n the character width) from the head of the line, the

 

character width in this case will include the amount of space to the right of the character.

 

Further, when the two-times horizontal character enlargement has been specified, the tab

 

position spacing will become twice wider than normal.

 

Tab positions may be set to a maximum of 32 locations, and tab position settings in

 

excess of this number will be disregarded.

 

The <n> k data that indicates the setting positions should be input in order from the

 

smallest value first, and should finish with <00>H.

 

The ESC <D NUL> command clears all the set tab positions. HT commands executed

 

after all the tabs have been cleared will be disregarded.
