Hi Jim,
It may be useful to be more specific about the definition of a tab stop.
In this context I think you mean the next multiple of 'n' greater than
the current position + 1.
(And not taking into account surrogates, high and low) as 1 character or 2.
In some other contexts, tab stops can be specified as an explicit list
of offsets from the start of the line.
Is there always at least one " " (space) replacing the tab?
In the exceptions, a typo: "less that equals"
In entab(), the "replaces some space characters... spacing aligns" seems
a bit vague.
(I don't want to read the code to have a precise understanding.)
Thanks, Roger
