But what I mean is, this behavior seems to be customisable.
By default, if it was left to the OS: selecting some text and pressing
Tab would replace the text with a tab character. This is what happens
in TextMate, at least.

BBEdit seems to override this, at least partially, to indent a block
instead of overwriting it.
So I guess my question is not really about the underlying
technicalities of it all, but whether BBEdit could be changed to
indent a single line, instead of overwriting it.

To me its a real usability quirk :-(

Thanks
Paul
