How to insert a tab in windows command prompt when you want to use tabs for indentation

[Roald87]

I could not figure out how to format using the tab as an indentation in the windows command prompt. I tried:

• pasting it and turning on/off the option where special characters are converted in the command prompt properties
• using --indentation "\t"

The work around I found was to make a bat file with the following content and run that one.

> TcBlack.exe --indentation "   " -p C:\Some\Project\PLC.plcproj
