Sorry to say, bu *you have absolutely no clue* of XML and other file formats.

No, YOU don't get it.

OOo is not an editor, it is a word processor.
> VIM: overwrites with hex09 but displays (5) spaces)
You have no clue. You can tell vim how much it should indent the text when there
is a tab. And it does not display 5 spaces, the whitespace only equals to the
width of 5 spaces.
> notepad etc: behave as normal editors
What is "normal editor's behaviour"?
> Pagemaker: even has no overwrite mode (my old version)
> Wordperfect: moves cursor on TAB in overwrite only, no insert
If they don't provide an overwrite mode at all or use the tab key for some other
action in overwrite mode, these are irrelevant.
> HTML-Editors: Have no TAB and insert spaces Mozilla even has no overwrite
> mode
HTML-Editors: You cannot use <Tab> as *content* of your HTML, but you can use
<Tab> to indent your HTML-code. So when bringing in HTML-Editors, you have to
switch those to Source-Code mode before trying otherwise these are irrelevant.
> Word: Vers. 97: behaves like an editor and inserts hex09
> wordpad: - doc:overwrites with Hex09 - rtf: tag inserted (\tab)
> OO.o: Overwrites letters with tag: xml-tag <text:tab-stop/> and viceversa
Don't you realize how silly this is? How a tab is stored has nothing to do with
the overwrite mode.
using OOo -> Save as Worddocument -> you get hex09, save as RTF -> you get \tab

Again: You are the only one that claims this is a failure. None of the
applications you mention support that claim. All the applicattions you mentioned
behave as OOo does (or don't have overwrite/tab at all)
> note:
> - all writer-programs that treat TAB as a tag or control behave right - in
> principle - and should treat it always that way
OOo treats as tag when saving as XML and thus is right. OOo always treats it as
tag when saving as XML. SO OOo is right.
Again: You have no clue about file formats. How the tab is stored absolutely has
nothing to do with this issue.
> - all editors, that treat TAB as Hex09 behave right
See above. It is irrelevant how the tab is stored.
> programs, that mix up both behaviors seems to be crazy, but when overwriting
> first kill a tag and than insert a letter is more than strange - and has
> nothing to do with xml - bytheway.
Again: OOo does not mix up the behaviours. Even if it would, you would not
notice because you don't edit the file-format itself but use the GUI.
I don't see a point in having this open any longer, thus closing wontfix.
