4.1.8. ESC D
(Description) Set tab positions
(Format) <1Bh> <44h> [<n>] k <00h>
(Comments) n represents the nth character position at which you wish the tab to be set.
To set k tabs on a line, <n> must be sent k times ensuring that
n1<= n2... <= nk
The string of data must be terminated by the null charcater <00h>.
eg.:
The command <1Bh> <44h> <09h> <0Ch> <16h> <00h> will set 3 tabs such
that, by using the command HT one, two or three times, you will be able to
start printing on the 10th, 13th or 23rd column.
The default value for tab positions is every 8 characters.
Any change made to the width of the characters before setting the tabs will be
included in the tabs width, all the changes made after would be ignored.
