Migrated case from Manuscript.

Original case: https://pharo.fogbugz.com/f/cases/19652 Status: Work Needed Project: Usability Original Author: CyrilFerlicot Date: 4 February 2017 10:12:38 am

Description:

Most IDE have the function.

Sometimes we want to format the code as we like and we select some lines of code to add a tab at the beginning of each lines.

Would be great of Pharo could have this kind of feature. It annoyed a friend that have the habits of Java's IDE.

We have Ctrl+Shift+r. Are you missing the function or the fact that it is not assigned with Tab?

I did not knew we could do it with this shortcut. Most IDE use TAB, I think we should do the same.

Just for the context: I was "teaching" Pharo to friends for an university project with free techno and this is something that annoyed them as Pharo beginners. This is the reason I think we should add this feature when we select multiple lines then tab. People using Pharo tend to live with hardly discoverable features but it repel some new peoples.
