[SOLVED] Writing the text to file that includes a 'tab' key

[Jus]

Hi all,

I have seemingly a simple question but I searched around and couldn't find the answer. I'm trying to write text to text files and I want to include a "tab" to separate the text. If it was in c++ it'd be like:

string = "HP\tSP\tAttack\tdefense";

then write the string to file.

How do I do it in GM? I know there are keyboard constants for all keyboard keys, like vk_tab for tab, but how do I use it in my case? Thanks in advance.

You could try something like string = "HP"+chr(9)+"SP"+chr(9)+"Attack"+chr(9)+"defense";

Thanks! Works like a charm!
