tabKey

The tabKey is a specialized keyboard key found on most modern keyboards, typically located between the backspace and shift keys. Its primary function is to move the cursor to the next tab stop in a text document or to insert a tab character, which is used for indentation and alignment purposes. The tabKey is particularly useful in text editing and programming, where consistent indentation is crucial for readability and code structure. On some keyboards, particularly those designed for specific applications like gaming or multimedia, the tabKey may be replaced or supplemented by other keys, such as a dedicated media control key or a function key. The tabKey is a fundamental tool in the digital workspace, enabling users to efficiently organize and format text.
