Tabs=["]HowToHandle["]

This #option command can be used to adjust the way that PPWIZARD processes tab characters (ascii 9).

The "HowToHandle" parameter controls how tabs if found are handled. Valid options are:

• Ignore
  Don't do anything, just ignore, this may cause preprocessor to fail (depending on where tabs are located).

• ToSpaces
  Each tab is converted to one only space.

• Warnings
  Each tab is converted to one only space and a warning is generated. This is the default condition.

• A Number
  This option is useful where your source uses a fixed tab stop (of 8 is very common). Each tab is expanded to the correct number of spaces for the tabs position.

Example - Specify Tab Handling

The following tells PPWIZARD how to handle tabs (every 4 characters) and means that tabs in your source code will not cause warnings to be generated):
