Hi :) I think the easy answer is, put a tab (and the extra space?) in front of the 1st line; " <tab> This is my first line of typing. <Press Enter> <tab> Type another line. <Press Enter> Now I want this line to begin at the same place as the previous line, at the "T" in the word "Type". "
This is not going against what Brian was saying, just cutting it down to the specific use-case asked about.
