If the field widths are regular and small, then tabs are probably ok after being passed through shrewdm processing.

But that's not the case when the fields are varying widths. Or when there are blank columns (fields).

Copy/pasted from Excel:
Not untabified:

Rows	2/1/1985	12/1/2025		Rows	9/1/2006	12/1/2025	
2	CAGR	23.5%		261	CAGR	20.9%	
492	Stdev	25.4%		492	Stdev	21.1%	
	MaxDD(12)	-36%			MaxDD(12)	-24%	
	Sortino	1.78			Sortino	1.77

Untabified:

Rows      2/1/1985  12/1/2025           Rows      9/1/2006  12/1/2025 
2         CAGR      23.5%               261       CAGR      20.9%     
492       Stdev     25.4%               492       Stdev     21.1%     
          MaxDD(12) -36%                          MaxDD(12) -24%      
          Sortino   1.78                          Sortino   1.77

When pasted into notepad, these look identical. And they look like the untabified version.
