The ''TAB$'' function returns a special control character called ''TAB'',
which carries the ASCII code of ''9''. When this character is printed,
the text cursor is automatically moved to the next tabulated column
setting (tab) to the right. The default setting for this is four
characters, which can be changed using ''SET TAB''.
