The ? operator will always return the sequence representation of any string.
Try coding ? "\t\t abcd" -- you get the same result. The 9's are the tab
characters. It's not a sprintf() problem, it's the way Euphoria works. Use
puts(1, sprintf("\t\t abcd", 0)) or printf(1, "\t\t abcd", 0) if you want to
see the tabs expanded.
