> If STREAM (which defaults to *STANDARD-OUTPUT*) is a pretty-printing
> stream, perform tabbing based on KIND, otherwise do nothing. KIND can
> be one of:
> :LINE - Tab to column COLNUM. If already past COLNUM tab to the next
> multiple of COLINC.
> :SECTION - Same as :LINE, but count from the start of the current
> section, not the start of the line.
> :LINE-RELATIVE - Output COLNUM spaces, then tab to the next multiple of
> COLINC.
> :SECTION-RELATIVE - Same as :LINE-RELATIVE, but count from the start
> of the current section, not the start of the line.
