Tabs and new lines can be created with toString [9] and toString [10], respectively. Alternatively, a new line can also be created with toString [92,110] ("\n"). If you save these strings into a variable, they can be manipulated like any other string. For example, the following code will work just fine and return the expected output: _tab = toString [9]; for "_i" from 0 to 3 do { _tab = _tab + (toString [9]); }; copyToClipboard format ["x%1x",tab];

While you can convert any String to Array with toArray command, only numbers from 1 to 55295 (not 65535 as expected) can be successfully converted to String with toString and then back to Array with toArray without loss of data.
