Silentype and the TAB command

TABs do not work properly with the Silentype. From Integer BASIC, the tab is
limited to the first 40 columns, while an Applesoft TAB(20) occassionally
outputs 20 spaces instead of going to column 20. Use POKE 36,T instead of
TAB(T) (where T is the tab value) with either BASIC.

Print "first item";: POKE 36,45: Print "second item"

Output:

first item second item
