Thread: tab is the key

I have a string

Code:

sprintf(string,"%s - %s", name, lastname);

I'm using font where width of all characters are not the same, just like here :

mmmmmmm
lllllll

I have to write a list of names in a ListBox. When i do this this problem occurs :

lmm - sdlkfsdf
mmm - sdlfkjsfd
lll - sfkdjsdlf
lml - slkdfjdf

So basicly i can use "Courier New",

Code:

lmm - sdlkfsdf
mmm - sdlfkjsfd
lll - sfkdjsdlf
lml - slkdfjdf

but i don't want to. I have heard somewhere about a TAB.
So how to use a tab in a string. You know just like '\n', so whats the tab symbol
