normal-tab - Insert a normal tab
n normal-tab
normal-tab insert a tab into the current buffer by temporarily disabling any auto indentation schemes. The macro first disables any indentation rules by setting $buffer-indent(5) to 0 the command tab(2) is then called with the given argument n. This means that the buffer's tab(2m) mode setting will be respected, i.e. whether a tab character or spaces are inserted. The initial indentation rules are restored on exit.
normal-tab is a macro implemented in format.emf.
