Almost. It will be ignored in its function as a column separator, but will be treated as normal text instead. Looking at Fl_Browser::draw_item() shows that it will eventually call fl_draw(str, ...), so that a tab will be treated as always in normal text and labels. Without looking deeper, I assume that the tabs will each be expanded to 8 blanks. Switching to a fixed font should prove that. I don't think that this will change in future versions of FLTK.
