Hi, With the liberty BASIC editor when selecting a block of text and then press tab it clears the selected block. I would like it to indent the selected block like it does in other editors? Don't know if any others feel similar to me on this as I am constantly clearing instead of indenting.  |

Don't know if any others feel similar to me on this as I am constantly clearing instead of indenting. Liberty BASIC v5.0 doesn't support the indenting feature you're looking for either I'm afraid. If it does appear, it probably won't until at least v5.1. |

Thanks Carl for considering it for the future, much appreciated One thing that you will appreciate with the current v5 work is a proper undo/redo function so that when you accidentally delete stuff, you can reliably undo it.  |

Also, will you be considering the block commenting/un-commenting also? |

I am pretty sure we have had code beautifiers discussed in the past. Does anyone have any auto indent code?

I'm afraid that's different kind of a beast.
Tab/Shift TAB - indents as *I* want, *right now* (and may be tomorrow I will change my mind)
Auto ident code indents as program author decided back then.
Even if that author was you back then,
right now you can have different opinion.

Another one that is similar to this request that Visual Studio and Visual Code have is pressing ALT + UP to move a line up and ALT + DOWN to move a line down. I use it all the time.
