Sorry Nick,
I don't understand what you want to get?
Change a <tab> character into \t?
Then you should try 's/<insert tab here>/\\t/g'.
Change a <tab> character into a <tab> character?
You can simply[1] insert <tab> characters in sed statements.
[1] By simple I mean without big quoting. You might not be able
to insert a <tab> character in your favourite shell but you
can write a little script (either shell or sed).
Regards
Joey
