Set tabs
Use tabs to align columns of text. Pressing @ lines up the text that follows at the next tab indicated
above the ruler. Nisus Writer Express offers four types of tabs you can place on the ruler. The tabs
differ in the manner in which they align text.
Automatic tabs appear every half inch after the last manually set tab.
