Tab Stops
Tab stops are selected based on the vertical column of the
display. When the wireless station receives a horizontal tab
code (HT, 09 hexadecimal), the cursor tabs to the next tab
stop. If no tab stops exist, the cursor tabs to the right mar-
gin.
The wireless station supports both tab stop sequences
(Table 8-14). The wireless station supports “global” line tab
stops only. It does not allow tab set and clear on every char-
acter on every line as for a VT220.
