Wiktionary shows "unindent", "outdent", "dedent" as [synonyms](https://en.wiktionary.org/wiki/outdent) for the exact action backspace is performing (and the preceding checkbox for shift-tab). Its better to consistently use the relevant terminology than to attempt to describe it in English, the least precise language there is :-P.
As a reference point Vscode uses "outdent" for that operation. Python describes the changing of its indent levels as indent and dedent. Sigh!!! Consistency!!!! But nobody tries to describe it. Of course when translating if "unindent" does not exist in [your language here] then you will have to describe it, but that does not imply that the correct English term (well one of the three) should not be used in the English desription. -- Reply to this email directly or view it on GitHub: https://github.com/geany/geany/issues/3588#issuecomment-1754743994 You are receiving this because you are subscribed to this thread.
