Tab stops in the forum post?

[coppercoil]

It seems tab symbol (0x09) doesn't work in Factorio forums. I'd like to show a simple table, it can be without borders, just columns aligned. Is it possible?

I don't know if someone else will come along with a better solution, but I believe using the code blocks will recognize tabs.

Actually, the [Tab] Can indifferently be used as :
1) the tab char we all know
2) the "get to next selectable interface element"

There is no absolute rule on which should be or shouldn't be the default behaviour, and seems the forum has the 2nd one.
If I had to do a table with the limited tools we have, I'd :
- Either put code tags, and make the table alignment with space chars
- Or create the table with tabs under Notepad++, and copy-paste (always between code tags) Beware that "tab" char is not guaranteed to be the same width from one editor to another, and it might break your alignments).
Space char, on the other hand, within code tags, will always be the same length.
