Horizontal tabs are set with the (ESC) "D" sequence. To set two for
your form, add the following line to your current program:
313 LPRINT CHR$(27)"D"CHR$(43)CHR$(48)CHR$(1);
The numbers 43 and 48 represent tab stops at columns 43 and 48, and
the CHR$(l) terminates the definition process.
Just as with vertical tabs, any number less than the last tab setting
(including 0) will terminate the tab sequence. And the printer also
remembers horizontal tab stops until you turn it off or define a new
sequence of tabs.
Horizontal tabs are activated by CHR$(9), which is the ASCII code
for HT. To see how this code works,
