It is easy to set tabs at current column, the following macro will do this.
// Set tab at current column
// Ian Binnie 23/07/2005
// ian_binnie at optusnet dot com dot au ( replace "at" "dot" by the normal characters.)
//
Save_Pos() // remember file position
#30=Buf_Num // Current Edit Buffer
#105=Cur_Col // current cursor column
#31=BUF_FREE // temporary buffer
Buf_Switch(#31)
Out_Reg(103) // redirect output to Reg.103
Num_Type(#105, NOCR)
Num_Type(#105, NOCR)
Out_Reg(CLEAR)
Buf_Quit(OK)
buf_switch(#30)
Reg_Set(103,"Config_Tab(", INSERT) // command begin -> R.103
Reg_Set(103,")", APPEND) // command end -> R.103
Call(103) // execute the built command
Restore_Pos() // back to old position

It would be equally easy to set tabs at fixed intervals after this.
