I'm not clear if termcap lib has this or not, when the curses

Can't you do this with `stty size' already?

Users can set this with the 'tabs' program included in the
curses package.

Readline is tab-agnostic, or tab-stop-agnostic, in a sense. It performs tab
expansion itself during redisplay, and currently uses a tab stop of 8.
That's not user-settable.
