Yes, exactly the same. Tenor banjo, mandolin and octave mandola are all tuned GDAE, so one piece of tab serves all three. The instruments sound different octaves, but your fingers do the same thing.
Four lines are the four strings, high E on top and low G at the bottom, which is how every published Irish tab book draws it. A number is the fret to press on that string, and 0 means play it open. The standard notation above the tab carries the rhythm.
Browsing, playback and printing are free. Historical settings come from the collections named on each tune page. Player contributions carry their own source credit; check those details when choosing a setting to reuse.
