terminal tab stop incorrect until reset

2022-03-14 Thread Ted Unangst
This came up long ago, but I've lost the mail, and the problem remains. When printing a line of text containing vt100 escapes and tabs, the tab stops are not set correctly. After running reset, they are. Repro: Open a new xterm and run printf "\e[32m\tgreen\e[0m\n". Observe four space indent.
