Re: "TAB" in kbd macro doesn't work with "emacs -nw" (LINUX)

If you replace tab by ?\C-i then it should work.

Hint:  Type C-h c TAB in GUI mode.  You should see a message like

TAB (translated from <tab>) runs the command ...

TAB here means the same as ?\C-i while <tab> means the physical TAB key.
