    1. COI love tabs too, but I don't see that you're going to be able to come up with technique that will work for 'newbie users' with no telling what kind of software that they use that is installed and don't even know about. Some windowing systems perserve tabs (I'm almost sure), but most convert tabs to spaces permanently. You'd have to add a filter to your copy/paste that was tab-space aware. Finally, sorry, but this isn't a programming question. Try superuser.com or webmasters.stackexchange.com.

    2. COYou shouldn't have to do anything. If there are tabs in the text you are copying then it's tabs you'll get. HOWEVER, many text editors have options to convert tabs to spaces, so I'd bet whichever editor you're using is converting the tabs on insert. Which editor (and which terminal emulator) are you using? Exactly how are you selecting, copying and pasting (mouse, then middle click, mouse, crtl+shift+c, crtl+shift+v etc.)?

    3. COThanks for the comments! To clarify, I am using PuTTY on windows. I either view a file in Vim and copy highlighted text, or I `cat` or `head` the file and copy the text from there. In either case, I the text is already devoid of tabs, I can tell when even highlighting the text because the cursor can select each individual space between the words (where the tabs should be). Is there a setting in PuTTY to tell it to preserve these tabs?

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.
