W I too like to indent paragraphs.  I discovered that ctrl-I
W works to create a tab character for indents.  Not exactly a TB
W feature, it just inserts an ASCII 9 which is the tab character.

I should have clarified that this behaviour of the non-indenting was
found in the html editor, not the plain text ones. Using the tab to
maneuver is not working properly. Switch to html editor, open new
email, type in the address, tab to Subject, then attach some .gif,
then tab to the body of the message. See how the caret jumps out to
the attachment? So, tabbing around in an Edit Mail Message screen
doesn't work. Well, _here_ it doesn't work.

 Can you teach me how to create all these in TB? I can sometimes need
 it in the office, because tables created in my fixed-width viewer
 don't display fine when the recipient uses a viewer with proportional
 fonts. I now sometimes attach an Excel file, but that is usually a
 complete overkill.

YOu must use HTML editor, all these features are available on toolbar.

It's just what I saw in the nav bar in the Edit Mail Message pane, so I'm still 
learning, too. Now that I've gotten my overdue paper in (and, Thomas, I swiped the 
Churchill quote from your sigline for it) I will put more attention to the 2.11.02.

Atlantis Ocean Mind - it's a wonderfully lean and very quick wordprocessor written by 
some equally wonderful Europeans at http://www.rssol.com/  (I hope this link comes 
through as clickable for you as it does not show highlighted in my html/plaintext 
view. Maybe I need to check the prefs...) I'm waiting rather patiently for Tables and 
Footnotes from them, but otherwise it runs rings around the bloatware wordprocessors 
out there.

This may sound dumb, but how does one move a thread to TBOT? Just do a cross-post? 
Well, I did it, and we'll see if it's right...
