ll.OwnerSay("A\tB")

ll.OwnerSay("C" .. string.char(9) .. "D")

-- >

--  A□B 

--  C□D

same happens with ll.Say(0, "A\tB") and print("A", "B")

in LSL, any version, it seems that \t is replaced with 4 white spaces:

default {

    state_entry() {

        llOwnerSay("A\tB");

        llOwnerSay("C" + llChar(9) + "D");

        // -->

        //  A    B

        //  C□D

    }

}

As explained in https://feedback.secondlife.com/slua-alpha/p/t-is-displayed-as this issue should be fixed in the viewer rather than using the LSL solution.
