Of course! He needed auto-indenting, not the tab indenting he
asked
for. And I explained how that works in my original reply.

Never mind.  I got as far as "I hope not" and the reasons why, and
responded to that.

Disregard.


Jim, no! Thank you for correctly explaining what I originally meant, but was to tongue tied to get it out. I too am used to using vi/(G)vim/geany and love the auto-indent feature. It saves a lot of tab typing.


Brian - thank you for pointing out the Increase/Decrease Indent functions. They do in fact do what I was looking for.
