strtok a <tab>

[lumpybanana247]

now, i know you can use strtok for many things, like here

char strxx[]   = "ah-hahaha";
char *first  = strtok(strxx, "-");
char *second = strtok(NULL, "\0");
String yo=first;
String fo=second;

.. but that has nothing to do with it....

what i want to do, is to load a file and subsitute the <tab> character with a new string, but <tab> obviosly means the margin, or whatever its called

FILE:

1<tab>2<tab>3<tab>400

and make that automatically turn into

string a=1;
string b=2;
string c=3;
string d=400;

but, i have had no luck 'strtok'ing a tab character.[and keep in mind that this is being loaded from a file]

thank you

So what is your question? What are you using as the representation of tab character in strtok? Did you try setting a single char variable to '\t'?
