     Tabalign (Boolean)
 
     The Tabalign switch determines the positioning of the cursor when
     it enters a tab field. A tab field is the area of the screen
     representing a tab character (ASCII 9) in the file. The width of a
     tab field is specified by the Filetab switch.
     See: Filetab, How Tabs are Displayed
 
     The Tabalign switch takes effect only when the Realtabs switch is
     set to Yes.
     See: Realtabs
 
     Syntax
 
     Tabalign:{ yes | no }
 
     yes    PWB aligns the cursor to the beginning of the tab field
            when the cursor enters the tab field. The cursor is placed
            on the actual tab character in the file.
 
     no     PWB does not align the cursor within the tab field.
 
            You can place the cursor on any column in the tab field.
            When you type a character at this position, PWB inserts
            enough leading blanks to ensure that the character appears
            in the same column.
 
     Default
