Both <ESC> “D” n] n2 .,.. <O> 27 68 nl n2 .... 0 IB 44 nl n2 00

Cancels all current horizontal tab stops and sets new tab stops at columns nl, n2, etc. in the current character pitch (pica pitch if proportional spacing is currently selected), where nl, n2, etc. are numbers between 1 and 255. The maximum number of horizontal tab stops allowed is 32 in Standard mode and 64 in IBM mode. The tab stops must be specified in ascending order; any violation of ascending order terminates the tab stop list. Standard termination is by the <0> control code. To clear all tab stops, specify <ESC> “D” <0>.
