Yes.  I selected the three letter sequence comma ?? w, and pasted it into
khexedit.  Sure enough, the middle char comes up as 0x09, the hexdecimal
ASCII code for TAB.

.. Learned that technique some versions ago, when PAN was having i18n/l10n
trouble and I was investigating some strange header weirdness.  At times,
one may need to save the raw text (or dig it out of the cache) to get the
"uncooked" version, when PAN is making charcoal out of what was supposed
to be "lightly browned".  <g>
