Description Nick Edgar CLA 2001-10-11 14:24:02 EDT 
- open type org.eclipse.ui.internal.dialogs.ResourceTreeAndListGroup
- in the field declarations, tab is used between the private modifier and the type name
but the type name appears immediately adjacent to the modifier.
For example (replacing \t with tab):
	private\tObject\t\troot;
appears as:
	privateObject               root

NOTES:
EG (10.10.2001 22:08:46)
	tabs are rendered by the StyledText widget. moving to SWT

Fixed in >20011118 (205).
A tab character now results in a gap at least one space wide.
