Chipp:

I'm slightly annoyed at the auto-format feature (<tab> key), because it does not support my particular and unconventional style, but I accept that.

I'm much more frustrated with what I see as the buggy way the auto-indent feature works. It gets in the way more often than it helps, and I've seen better UIs that do not get in the user's way.

Perhaps we should distinguish between the two features. I think that Bob and I are more concerned about the auto-indent feature

Maybe we need an auto-auto-format feature, where the <tab> key is pressed for us, behind the scenes, after each key stroke <sick grin>

Bob,

I understand both you and Jon are frustrated by the indenting of the script editor and it's duly noted. It's difficult to switch paradigms.

In a quick search of all the back use-revolution posts, I could only find 6 references to "indent + script + editor" in over 262,000 posts, and none of them shared your individual concerns. Perhaps it's time to make a note in Bugzilla for a feature request and let it go at that.

Or, if you're up to it, create you own script editor which indents however you like, or use Trevor's handy BBedit script, then you can use BBedit to format your scripts any way you like.

best regards,

Chipp
