Yes. Did you read my comments?

	${variable2}
	response3
	EOF # Note that these the beginning of each line are tabs, not space characters.

My comment in the code tag was a bit nonsensical, admitedly - it should have read "Note that the beginning of each line is a tab character, not space characters."

As I also pointed out, I verified this behavior in bash, pdksh, ksh88 and ksh93. Tabs, not spaces.

Try it for yourself:
Code:
#! /bin/ksh
cat <<-Marker
	This demonstrates a line with a leading tab
 This demonstrates a line with a leading space
	EOF
