NGINX logging tab delimited format to syslog

[CJ Ess]

I would really like to output my nginx access log to syslog in a tab
delimited format.

I'm using the latest nginx and rsyslogd 7.2.5

I haven't found an example of doing this, I'm wondering if/how to add tabs
to the format in the log_format directive

And also if there is anything I need to do to syslogd to pass through the
tab characters.

Any help appreciated!
