Type and version:	RTPC-ROMPC 7.3P (2 update(s) to same version)
Display type:		apa16

What were you trying to do?

Send a Zephyr message with xzwrite.

What's wrong:

It does not appear to be converting tabs into spaces correctly.

What should have happened:

It should expand tabs to spaces before sending the message.  I thought
that I had already written this code, but maybe it got lost.
