Nothing in this page (or any other ncurses man page) ever changes the
tab stops, so it's unnecessary to call this macro to restore them.
groff(1) discourages its use.
groff_man(7):
.DT Reset tab stops to the default (every 0.5i [inches]).
Use of this presentationāoriented macro is deprecated. It
translates poorly to HTML, under which exact space control
and tabulation are not readily available. Thus,
information or distinctions that you use tab stops to
express are likely to be lost. If you feel tempted to
change the tab stops such that calling this macro later is
desirable to restore them, you should probably be
composing a table using tbl(1) instead.
