print ascii characters
Hi all,
I've written a little script that prints data from mysql and hard coded text into a text file. I need to also seperate a couple words with TAB. I can't seem to figure out how to print a tab.

would this have anything to do with ascii?
The integers from asciitable.com for TAB are

Dec Hex Oct
9 9 011

Can anyone help me figure this out? I bet it's easy...
Thanks!

or you can use escape characters. A tab would be:
print"\t";
Your ouput needs to enclosed in double quotes for this to work.
