Hello,

I wrote a TCL script that uses tethereal to convert network packets (TELNET)
to text format and do some text processing on it.

The embedded "\t" in the TELNET data (Eg. "State\t Copy") gets converted to
tab space on WINDOWz version but on unix (linux and solaris) it appears as
"\t". Is there any way I can force unix version to convert "\t" to tab
space?

Thanks

Jeeva.
