OK, so, here is how I would like code to be formatted (not that I

if [statement] then

end if -- note I always line my ENDs up with the internal statements
There is a reason for this: if I want to clip the final line out, I
can just do a <shift><down arrow> and not have to back up to get rid
of the "EN" that was accidentally included. This is one of the
annoyances with the current script editor, something that does not
happen with the Delphi editor.
But you still have that problem with the statement before the "else"
(and before the end of repeat, switch, case, end of handler, ...);
Operating on the whole current line, is common, so I'd like a command
to either select whole current line, or to select from <current pos>
to the end of the whitespace on the next line.
You are quite right about the problem with ELSE (I'm used to Pascal
where multiple line statements are bracketed by BEGIN/END, and since I
indent the END, that "takes care of" that "problem").
I also indent the end of REPEATs, SWITCHES, CASES, etc, so that is not a
problem for me (unless I use the auto-format in Rev).
One can select the whole current line via <home><shift><end><unShift>,
but then you have to make room for the text.
I've begun to realize that the ease with which I use Delphi is due
significantly to issues other than the editor (my bizarre indentation
style, the BEGIN/END syntax, etc). That said, I agree with an earlier
statement by someone else that the editor's auto-indent behavior can be
improved without making problems for long-time (not to say "older" )
users of the editor.
