uVision3. Putting tabs in templates?

In the templates tab of the configuration dialog, is there a way to denote/enter a tab characters in the text that makes up a template?

    I'm not sure if I understand what you are trying to do. I'm sure that you have found the TAB key just cycles thru the Dialog buttons.
    The vertical bar denotes where you want the cursor to return after printing the template.
    You can use this to space an entry after a title entry. It appears that you can have only one vertical bar. You can have more, the print routine just ignores all but the last vertical bar.
    For the Global templates ( all files), the set up is defined in ..\uV3\GLOBAL.ini. Other templates are set up in their respective .ini files such as C51.ini defines the for(|;;) template, etc.
    Make sure that you make copies of the .ini files if you plan to make any direct changes. Directly changing an .ini file is always suspect. Looking at these files hints that escape characters should work but I don't know.
