url encode %09 not working in email - unicode

Not sure why but the unicode for the tab key %09 isn't working when I put it in my a tag. The space and linefeed are both working just not the tab. It seems to be converting it to a space. Maybe it was colapsing the whitespace so I put a ~ in front of one of the tabs.
here is my a tag

Force tab character indents for a language in vscode

Im trying to make a vscode extension for a video game level format, as it reads files and parses them into playable levels, but it uses indents for more than just visuals, and removing them all would make the level not playable.
The issue is that the game only uses tab characters (\t) for tabs, and wont parse the level if spaces are used.
I need to know if there is a way to ignore the users default settings and always use tab characters when pressing tab while typing in a language added by an extension (i need this built into the extension, having every user go and change some setting themself for a file type would be very annoying)

� exists in my markdown files strangely

I have a markdown written in Chinese. my local file seems fine but there are some � characters in it when I upload it to GitHub. see the following pics
The "� " character is a placeholder in unicode for characters it does not recognize.
Your copy of visual studio is using a font that contains those characters, so it does not have the placeholder. Your browser is using a font that does not contain those characters, so the placeholder gets displayed.
To fix this, you should select a font for your browser that has those characters, such as the one your copy of Visual Studio is using.
all right,figure it out.
I Inserted some control characters by mistake and the vs-code hided control characters by default.
just press cmd+shift+p to toggle control characters.then delete the control characters.

Use tab indentation for one-off file when Eclipse is configured to use spaces indentation without chanding preferences

I'm using Eclipse for PHP Developers (PDT). Normally I use spaces instead of tab characters for indentation. However, I'm editing someone else's file who indents using tabs and I want to preserve indentation style while editing their file. This is turning out to be difficult because whenever I press the Tab key it inserts spaces. I don't want to change my configuration to use spaces instead of tabs as I'll have to remember change it back. Is there a way I can insert a literal tab character?
I've tried copying a existing tab character in the file yet past results in spaces being inserted!
While I haven't found a way of inserting a literal tab character, with the AnyEdit Tools add-on installed I've found this simple procedure works for me:
Edit the file ignore the whitespace inconsitencies.
Once finished edits, right-click and select Convert > Spaces to Tabs.
Should work the other way round if one was normally used to Tab indentation.

Chinese characters showing up as boxes in dreamweaver

When trying to copy paste some Chinese characters in a HTML file open in Dreamweaver I see that its being represented as boxes. When I view the pave on a browser I can see the characters correctly so its just in Dreameaver that they don't show up.
I read some posts on S.O. about utf-8 and saving with BOM disabled.I have even included Chinese on my keyboard with no luck.
edit. I tried editing the Fonts in Edit>Preferences to Chinese but when I click OK and I go back to it it shows Unicode again.
I could just copy and paste everything and it will work but it would be easier if I can see the different characters so when I need to hyperlink some word or include it in a tag I dont have to count boxes and view on the browser to figure it out.
I found out what was the problem. It was an encoding issue on Dreamweaver.
Went to Modify>Page Properties>Title/Encoding and changed the encoding to Chinese.
The Unicode showed up boxes in Dreamweaver.
However if you have already text copied in then they might not turn to the actual characters correctly so you have to re-enter them or if you didn't enter anything text yet its ok.

Cocos2D and UTF-8 (german characters)

I have a .xml file containing some text. The text also has some German charcters (ä, ü, ö) in it.
The XML file is encoded as UTF-8, wich makes it appear fine in every text editor and xcode.
But when showing the text on a Cocos2D CCLabelTTF (iPhone/iPad), the special characters get messed up. They are replaced by one or two ugly characters I have never seen before ;-)
Should I use a different encoding? Or is there a way to make Cocos2D get that right?
BTW: If I enter the same text directly into xcode (without using the xml file), the text shows up correctly on the label...
