Syntax: `DelTabs [0|1]`
Abbreviation: `DT`

sets the `DelTabs` flag. When this flag is set, a ‘`d`’ will appear on the status bar, and the `BackSpace` and `Del` keys will remove a tab’s worth of space characters if a TAB character could have occupied the same whitespace in the current line as the removed spaces. This is the deletion counterpart to the `Tabs` flag. See Tabs.
