SUMMARY
When you compose a message on a Bulletin Board Service (BBS) and type a subject in the Subject area, the subject you typed also appears in the message's title bar.

If you use a tab character in the message subject, the tab character appears as spaces in the Subject area and as a pipe character (|) in the message's title bar. For example, the subject

" This is the subject" appears in the Subject area as

"    This is the subject" and in the title bar as:

"|This is the subject"
