     Realtabs (Boolean)
 
     The Realtabs switch determines if PWB preserves tab (ASCII 9)
     characters on lines that you modify or if PWB includes tab
     characters in white space to be converted to spaces or tabs.
 
     The Entab switch determines the method that PWB uses to translate
     white space to either tabs or spaces. When the Realtabs switch is
     set to Yes, tab characters are not converted. When Realtabs is set
     to No, tab characters are included in the white space to be
     converted.
     See: Entab
 
     Realtabs also determines if the Tabalign switch is in effect.
