Alignment with \t

[divyareddy12]

\t aligns the text one below each in case of unix output but this is not the case in jquery terminal

The feature is in devel branch, but you can update it in your current version using:

$.terminal.encode = function encode(str, options) {
    var settings = $.extend({
        tabs: 4
    }, options);
    return $.terminal.amp(str).replace(/</g, '&lt;').replace(/>/g, '&gt;')
        .replace(/ /g, '&nbsp;').split('\n').map(function(line) {
            var splitted = line.split(/(\t)/);
            return splitted.map(function(str, i) {
                if (str === '\t') {
                    if (i === 0 || splitted[i - 1] === '\t') {
                        return new Array(settings.tabs + 1).join('&nbsp;');
                    } else {
                        var before = splitted.slice(0, i).join('');
                        var len = $.terminal.length(before);
                        var chars = settings.tabs - (len % settings.tabs);
                        if (chars === 0) {
                            chars = 4;
                        }
                        return new Array(chars + 1).join('&nbsp;');
                    }
                }
                return str;
            }).join('');
        }).join('\n');
};

Now tabs option actually work (previously it only worked with columns and echo array) you can specify 8 to get the same results as in unix terminal.
