Defining software tab positions

z/OS ISPF Edit and Edit Macros
SC19-3621-00

If you display the =TABS> line and type software tab definitions, they take effect immediately. Each line contains a software tab or a tab field at the designated column positions. The TABS primary command has no effect on software tab definitions.

To define software tab positions:

  1. Type TABS in the line command field and press Enter.
  2. Type an underscore (_) or a hyphen (-) at each desired column position on the =TABS> line.
  3. Press Enter again to start the tabs.

You can move the cursor from one column position to the next by continuing to press Enter. See Using software and hardware tabs for an example of using software tabs.
