Hi,
You could also use the py braces stuff for this.
Or you could cut out the code you want indented and paste it into a
second buffer and then do your find and replace for newlines there.
Or, if you know how many consecutive lines you want indented (call it N
lines), using vim you could do this:
place cursor on first line
<esc>
v -- for visual mode
Nj -- the number of lines N followed by the letter j to move down that
number of lines
> -- the greater than key will indent the default tab stop and shift
width spaces.
Or, given START and END line numbers (again with vim):
<esc>
:START,ENDs/^/ /g
which goes into command mode with <esc> and then replaces the ^ (start
of line) with a space gloabally throughout the range START,END.
I've downloaded EdSharp today for the first time -- should have looked
at it long time ago already. A funny thing was that I couldn't find a
download link for it via Google because I was searching for Edge Sharp
as in edge of the table ha ha -- what is screen readers doing to mankind.
It would be awesome if EdSharp could incorporate a vim mode so one would
not need to do a lot of Ctrl + Alt etc. for navigation -- not even to
mention having to move your hands to the arrow keys all the time.
Skimming through the documentation, I must say, EdSharp looks a nifty
piece of work wow! Well done to everyone who helped make it.
Cheers

Well, I see on edit menu, there's an indent option that seems to work
on multiple, selected lines, but it uses a tab character - might be
changeable, or alternatively, you could use it, and then try replace
those tabs with spaces..?
Stay well

Subject: indent block of text with edSharp?
Hi all,
I am using Python, so indentation matters. I just realized that a
couple hundred lines of code have to be inside a class, not outside of
one. Is there a way I can basically select the code and tell edSharp
to insert a space? I could use a find and replace for \n, replacing it
with "\n ", but there is a lot of code in the file that does not need
to be indented. Note that I use a space, not a tab, for my indents.
Thanks.
