Backspace characters are preserved into the output and decrement the column count for tab calculations. The .Nm utility is useful for pre-processing character files (before sorting, looking at specific columns, etc.) that contain tabs. .Pp The .Nm unexpand utility puts tabs back into the data from the standard input or the named files and writes the result on the standard output. .Pp The following options are available: .Bl -tag -width indent .It Fl a .Nm ( unexpand only.) By default, only leading blanks and tabs are reconverted to maximal strings of tabs. If the .Fl a option is given, then tabs are inserted whenever they would compress the resultant file by replacing two or more characters. .It Fl t \&Sm Ar tab1 , tab2 , ... , tabn \&Sm Set tab stops at column positions .Ar tab1 , tab2 , ... , tabn . If only a single number is given, tab stops are set that number of column positions apart instead of the default number of 8. .El .Sh ENVIRONMENT The .Ev LANG , LC_ALL and .Ev LC_CTYPE environment variables affect the execution of .Nm and .Nm unexpand as described in .Xr environ 7 . .Sh EXIT STATUS .Ex -std expand unexpand .Sh STANDARDS The .Nm and .Nm unexpand utilities conform to .St -p1003.1-2001 . .Sh HISTORY The .Nm utility first appeared in .Bx 1 .
