Has anyone modified "C" TransEdit (1.02 or later) to work with the TAB
key in a sensible way?

I'm thinking of just inserting padding into the TE record after the TAB
(enough spaces to make TAB work for monospaced characters); this is probably
OK for my application even though it'll look stupid for proportionally-spaced
fonts.  Even this brute-force approach promises to be a pain to implement.

Anyone got any ideas or code?

By the way, I'm ready for "C" Trans* 2.0 whenever it's ready for me ...
I hope it has popup menu support ...

(Thanks, Paul!  Paul DuBois is God!  Praise Paul!)
