TATE top-level constant

String const TATE

Tabulation Aligned Trailing Edge.

Representation: CSI n \x20 \x60

No parameter default value.

TATE causes a character tabulation stop calling for trailing edge alignment to be set at character position n in the active line (the line that contains the active presentation position) and lines of subsequent text in the presentation component. TATE causes the replacement of any tabulation stop previously set at that character position, but does not affect other tabulation stops.

A text string aligned with a tabulation stop set by TATE will be positioned so that the (trailing edge of the) first graphic character of the string is placed at the tabulation stop.

Implementation

const String TATE = ' `';
