What does "\t" do?
What does "\t" do?

This is a general question.
I have searched the Internet for an answer but could not find anything.
I know what "\n" is and how to use it.
Now I have come across "\t", and I don't know what that is.
Is there a table of some sort that lists and explains the different "\(letter) things?

'\t' is the horizontal tab character.

Thank you for the quick reply. I did search for the answer before posting, but couldn't find a decent answer. My goodness, there is so much to learn!
Again, thank you for being so tolerant.

I feel you. Years ago I was trying to understand msdos make.exe and makefiles. Tried googling "$<" and "$@". Man I almost cried that day :-)
