Not sure about changes about h-tabs; at some point of time around 7.0
version, there was a change from RichEdit 1.0 to RichEdit 2.0.
Anyway, my trick is just to avoid that character, because you always
get problems (50% of editors, formatters etc. think that HT must be 4
characters, the other 50% that it must be 8).
Then, use spaces, don't worry and be happy!
