Tab positioning

Code:
xx00102 1(SG): [ . ]   [ @ ]
xx00102 3(SG): [ @ ]   [ . ]
xx00115 lan900:        [ @ ]   [ . ]
xx00115 lan901:        [ . ]   [ @ ]
xx00116 1(SG): [ . ]   [ @ ]
xx00116 3(SG): [ @ ]   [ . ]

the boxes are echoed on the same line with one \t. Is there anyway to get all the boxes to line up? Or possibly is there a way to fix the position of something on the line regardless of what is in front of it. Like this:

Code:
xx00102 1(SG): [ . ]   [ @ ]
xx00102 3(SG): [ @ ]   [ . ]
xx00115 lan900:[ @ ]   [ . ]
xx00115 lan901:[ . ]   [ @ ]
xx00116 1(SG): [ . ]   [ @ ]
xx00116 3(SG): [ @ ]   [ . ]

Let me know if this doesnt make any sense and I will try to explain more. Thanks!

NAME
Locale::Codes::LangFam - standard codes for language extension identification SYNOPSIS
use Locale::Codes::LangFam; $lext = code2langfam('apa'); # $lext gets 'Apache languages' $code = langfam2code('Apache languages'); # $code gets 'apa' @codes = all_langfam_codes(); @names = all_langfam_names(); DESCRIPTION
The "Locale::Codes::LangFam" module provides access to standard codes used for identifying language families, such as those as defined in ISO 639-5. Most of the routines take an optional additional argument which specifies the code set to use. If not specified, the default ISO 639-5 language family codes will be used. SUPPORTED CODE SETS
There are several different code sets you can use for identifying language families. A code set may be specified using either a name, or a constant that is automatically exported by this module. For example, the two are equivalent: $lext = code2langfam('apa','alpha'); $lext = code2langfam('apa',LOCALE_LANGFAM_ALPHA); The codesets currently supported are: alpha This is the set of three-letter (lowercase) codes from ISO 639-5 such as 'apa' for Apache languages. This is the default code set. ROUTINES
