ace 调用tab_Ace编辑器（javascript）：触发Ace Editors事件处理程序的标签按钮事件（不只是插入'/ t'或空格）...

I am using Ace Editor to build a code replay program. I store all the keys pressed when you type code, and then I replay them in Ace Editor. I have finished storing and replaying all keyboard/mouse input, but am having issues replaying tab presses.

Ace Editor handles tabs within a textarea DOM. The default behavior for a textarea when tab is pressed is to move to the next DOM, so I know they are using preventDefault() and using their own handler in order to allow softTab (insertion of 1,2,3, or 4 spaces before all highlighted text).
