documentation

"

    This is a helper class for table widgets and tabular data in

    lists.

    A tabulatorSpecification keeps track of where the tabs are,

    and how they align. They are to be used in conjunction with

    MultiColumnListEntry or the upcoming TableWidget.

    However, they may also be useful to represent tabs in a

    paragraph of text.

    Example use (in a ListView):

	|listView tabSpec entry|

	listView := ListView new.

	tabSpec := TabulatorSpecification new.

	tabSpec unit:#inch.

	tabSpec positions:#(0     1     2.5    3.5    4       5        ).

	tabSpec align:    #(#left #left #right #right #center #decimal ).

	entry := MultiColListEntry new.

	entry tabulatorSpecification:tabSpec.
