TAB Tab to Specified Position
PRINT TAB(column)
Moves to a specified print position. May be used in conjunction with
PRINT, LPRINT, and PRINT #.
column A numeric expression.
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
Notes: If the current print (or screen) position is already to
the right of column, TAB moves to position column on the
next line.
If column is larger than the width of output device,
TAB(column) moves to column MOD width.
If column is less than 1, TAB(column) is treated as
TAB(1).
If the TAB function comes at the end of a list of data
items in a PRINT statement, BASIC behaves as if the PRINT
statement were terminated by a semicolon; it suppresses
the usual carriage return and line feed.
