OUTLINE Cancels all current vertical tab stops and sets new vertical tab
stops at lines n1, n2, etc. where n1, n2, etc. are numbers
between 1 and 255. A maximum number of 16 vertical tab
positions can be set. Tab positions must be specified in
ascending order; any violation of ascending order terminates the
tab position list. Standard termination is by the <0> control code.
Vertical tab positions are set in terms of the current line spacing
and do not move if the line spacing is changed later.
NOTE
If a tab set position <nk> is equivalent or smaller than <nk -1> just
preceding the tab set position, setting of vertical tab is assumed
as complete.
