Margins

+       A  few  terminals  provide the capability for changing their left/right
+       margins.  The tabs program has an option to use this feature:
+
+       +m margin
+            The  effect  depends  on  whether  the  terminal  has  the  margin
+            capabilities:
+
+            o   If  the  terminal provides the capability for setting the left
+                margin, tabs uses this, and adjusts the  available  width  for
+                tab-stops.
+
+            o   If the terminal does not provide the margin capabilities, tabs
+                imitates the effect, putting the tab stops at the  appropriate
+                place  on  each  line.   The  terminal's  left-margin  is  not
+                modified.
+
+            If the margin parameter is omitted, the default is 10.  Use +m0 to
+            reset  the  left  margin, i.e., to the left edge of the terminal's
+            display.  Before setting a left-margin, tabs resets the margin  to
+            reduce  problems which might arise on moving the cursor before the
+            current left-margin.
+
+       When setting or resetting the left-margin, tabs may  reset  the  right-
+       margin.
