Subject: continuation-indentation
It doesn't seem to be possible to set continuation-indentation to be a tab, only a number of spaces. I want a tab.

You can -et=n to do this. For example, -et=4 -ci=4 -i=4 will produce one tab for each indentation level and and one for each continuation indentation level. You may want to coordinate the value of n with what your display software assumes for the spacing of a tab. Note that if -ci=n and -i=n use the same n, there is a flag -xci in the next release that will improve formatting. A preliminary release with this flag is version 20201001.02 at https://github.com/perltidy/perltidy/releases

Awesome; that works. One more thing I can remove from my postfilter!
