Hey Jean-Christophe,
Tabs are problematic in the Terminal. The terminology to work with them has some very odd gaps. We've hoped for years that Apple would fix this, but they haven't.
You'll have to resort to UI-Scripting if you want to create tabs in a Terminal window.
That's clumsy but doable.
iTerm is a little better:
tell application "iTerm" tell the first terminal launch session "Default Session" tell the last session set name to "New Session" write text "cd /usr/bin; ls" end tell end tell end tell
-- Best Regards, Chris
