Hi guys!

Is there a way to do block indenting of a selection?
Other editors would allow you to select block of text (over multiple
lines) and then hit tab or shift-tab to indent or unindent that block.

I hope there is a way to do this, I can't seem to find it.

Cheers
Robin

Text->Shift Left/Right (command-[ and command-]).

Enjoy,
Peter.

Command [ and Command ]

It's on the Text menu as "Shift left" and "Shift right".

And don't forget that holding down the Shift key will indent/outdent
by a single space rather than the default tab width.
