Explanation:
This command allows setting of up to 16 vertical tabs. The tabs
can be set in 8 channels using the ESC b command. This
command sets the tabs in channel 0. These are entered as nl,
n2, n3, etc. (in the range 1 to 254) with the NUL character as the
terminator. The tab settings nl, n2, n3, etc. must be entered in
ascending order. The tab settings can be cleared by executing
the command giving a value of zero to n1. Altering the line
spacing after giving this command does not affect the absolute
position of the tab setting.
