No.
The only reason that
Environment.NewLineexists at all is cross-platform issues, which the tab character doesn’t have.The newline character is
\ron (pre-OS X) Mac,\non Unix, and\r\non Windows.To allow .NET code to be portable across these platforms, the
Environment.NewLineproperty was created, to return the newline character(s) used by the platform your code is running on.The tab character is standard across all platforms, so there’s no point in making a property to return it.
