title: Adding a tab in a Shell script
body: <p>So I have an extremely simple shell script, where it inputs an IP address and a domain name in the hosts file of a person's computer. For "development purposes only!" it works fine, it just inputs the IP address and domain name like so</p>
  
  <p>192.168.53.215dev.env.os
  192.168.53.215dev.source.os</p>
  
  <p>Where I want it to input it like this:</p>
  
  <p>192.168.53.215   dev.env.os
  192.168.53.215   dev.source.os</p>
  
  <p>So basically I want it to add space between the IP address and the domain name, unfortunately I can't really figure it out. Any help would be appreciated, this is a simple script though and shouldn't be cluttered with an over complicated script. Please keep it simple and explain exactly what you're doing I would like to learn it not have it done for me thanks!</p>
  
  <p>Here is the code:</p>
  
  <pre><code>do shell script "/usr/bin/printf \"\\n# Add #####'s ip for Sourcebox\\n192.168.53.215\\dev.env.os\\n192.168.53.215\\dev.source.os\\n\" &gt;&gt; /etc/hosts; /usr/bin/dscacheutil -flushcache" with administrator privileges
  </code></pre>
