Re[2]: How to indent a whole block of text?
Marco, I'm obviously missing something here I couldn't find the appropriate section in the FAQ, and try as I might, the process you suggest doesn't work for me. I can move the block by switching to column and just inserting some empty area, but I'd like to know what you had in mind. If it's possible to be more detailed (I admit it seems already like it's pretty detailed...), can you supply a remedial version? :-) JN Sunday, December 09, 2001, 4:51:15 PM, you wrote: Hello Rick, on 08/12/2001 at 16.38 you wrote: RR indented. However, I still don't see how to take a whole block of text RR that isn't indented and indent it some. Maybe it's not possible? Select the block, then Ctrl-K I.

MDP Switch to column block mode (Ctrl-OC or use the status bar - click MDP where it says Stream), mark and cut the whole block, place the MDP cursor at the column offset required and paste. If you reformat the MDP block, it retains the indent but wraps the right margin. Thanks! Works great. The only slightly annoying thing I'm running into is if say I copy or cut text from somewhere else and want to paste it indented as you mentioned above, I have to make sure I have enough space to fit the pasted in text. In other words in column mode it doesn't automatically force down my signature and the paste will run right over it. Is there a way I could force it to 'push' down what is below where I am pasting? MDP Of course, this is not possible without a free caret editor g! Wow, is this what all the editor discussion was about over the past few days? Is the anti-bat editor clan against having this feature? I don't get. I think it's great. -- Rick mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] The difference between a man and a boy is, a boy wants to grow up to be a fireman, but a man wants to grow up to be a giant monster fireman. -Jack Handey -- Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ: http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com

You can select a JA block of spaces to the right of the paragraph to be indented. Then JA you just paste it in to the left of the paragraph. Just a thought. Now that's cool. Thanks so much for the suggestion. I hope they keep this functionality in the next Bat version as well. -- Rick mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] I hope some animal never bores a hole in my head and lays its eggs in my brain, because later you might think you're having a good idea but it's just eggs hatching. -Jack Handey -- Archives : http://tbudl.thebat.dutaint.com Moderators : mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] TBTech List: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Unsubscribe: mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Latest Vers: 1.53d FAQ: http://faq.thebat.dutaint.com
