@MartinLezer Beyond ctrl+k to format something as a code block, there really isn't anything that helps with indentation. I think I know the question that prompted your question here, and I had to do the indentation by hand.

The only 'shortcut' that I used was copying the 4 spaces at the start of the first line of code, and repeatedly pasting it for subsequent lines (because hitting ctrl+v 5 times beats hitting space 20 times).

I've also copy/pasted code from a question into a basic code editor (notepad++) that allows me to highlight sections of code and press 'tab' once to indent the entire thing (or shift + tab to un-indent by one level). I'll then copy/paste it back into the question when I'm done.

I'll use Notepad++ in the future.

which question now?

@DerekF Ah, that's always fun. You know if you paste it into the Execute Anonymous window in the Developer Console and hit Shift + Tab it will auto-indent for you.

No separate app, and it's pretty accurate/fast/convenient

And I usually already have it open

@AdrianLarson I did not know that. That's pretty damn cool.

Yeah immensely helpful for editing SFSE posts.

Might interest @MartinLezer as well. Seems like the right tool for the same job.

Starring that tip

@AdrianLarson Yes thanks. Didn't know that either.

That's perfect

And then while you have everything selected just tab out one more time and then it's paste-ready into SFSE
