Bug Description
Binary package hint: mrxvt
Found in mrxvt 0.5.3-1, on ubuntu 8.04 amd64.
Tab stops (normally every 8 chars, but can be changed with the 'ESC H' and 'ESC [ g' escape sequences) are shared between all tabs within a mrxvt window, rather than each tab having their own set up defined tabstops.
To reproduce, open a new mrxvt window and type at the shell prompt:
echo -e ".\t.\t.
(This should show a row of evenly-spaced dots.)
echo -e " ^[H ^[H ^[H ^[H"
(This adds some extra tab stops.)
echo -e ".\t.\t.
(Tab stops are now no longer every 8 chars)
Now create a new Tab (eg. press shift-control-t).
echo -e ".\t.\t.
(The extra tab stops created in the first window show up in the second window)
