I believe this is an XML thing. You might find an XML
parser that would preserve a hard tab character in a
buildfile, but as I understand it the tab character is
not defined in XML so the behavior of (e.g. Xerces) is
to interpret it as a space. That what appears to be
happening when I run:
<project>
<echo message="foo bar" />
<!-- that was a tab between foo and bar
but my HTML form-based e-mail won't let
me do it ;) -->
</project>
Can you just use several spaces? You could even do:
<property name="tab" value=" " />
and use ${tab} wherever you want...
