- DeTab [file] <file >output
-
- DeTab replaces tab characters (ASCII 9) in the input file with runs of spaces.
- The input file may be specified on the command line and must be of type TXT or
- SRC. DeTab will alternately accept standard input as the input file. The
- converted file is sent to standard output.
-
- The size of each tab field is determined by the file's language stamp. DeTab
- will use the tab definition line found in the SysTabs file corresponding to the
- language number of the file. If standard input is used as the source file, a
- standard tab line with tab positions every fourth character position will be
- used.
-
- Input may also be piped from another utility. For example:
-
- DeRez myfile.stuff | DeTab >myfile.rez
-
