Hi,
not yet - sorry.

Julian,
So then at some future point FDontRoundNextTab will be implemented in WPT5? I use this variable in several places under a variety of circumstances.

FDontRoundNextTab definitely was a work around for some special problem. Currently tabs are not rounded at all.
With WPTools 4 (and before) the count of tab positions was limited per document (TABMAX=128). So I had to round them to reuse as many positions as possible to avoid that the engine runs out of available slots.
(Reason: the tabs were activated using a bitfield)
In WPTools 5 the count of tabs is not limited anymore. They are stored with each TParagraph and consume exactly 4 bytes for each position. This 4 bytes hold the position, the kind, the fill mode and the color for the fill signs.
So rounding of tabs is not required anymore.
But I plan to offer a possibility to let tabs stops rounded - so my first answer was 'not yet'

Ahhh....:)))
I definitely prefer the new default, as implemented in WPTools 5 - no rounding!
