Yes

Nevertheless random signatures also can be done by templates with
cookies. A useful macro for signature templates is %ISSIGNATURE.

Alt-L.

Ctrl-Shift-F toggles autoformatting. It can be also set in editor
preferences. But. You have to be very careful with autoformatting
turned on -- you have to provide an empty line between paragraphs.

You don't need to select a paragraph calling any kind of reformatting
if the cursor inside this paragraph (if not to mention an ancient bug
with that you have to place cursor into paragraph with a keyboard,
that means that you have to make a move with arrows if TB! refuses to
reformat current paragraph correctly).
