Seriously missing an 'indent block text' function

[reflectivist]

While I give DEVONnote big kudos for allowing multiple simultaneous disparate text selections, it is a big omission by DEVONnote to not have the ability to indent and unindent selected blocks of text. Usually on the Mac, editors have something like CMD+] to indent ( and CMD+[ ) as keyboard shortcuts, to unindent a block of text by typically by 4 or 8 characters… and the feature is also accessible from a menu.

Not being able to indent and unindent blocks of text means a lot of tedious labor in formatting text; I mean a LOT of error prone and needlessly tedious labor that is inconsistent with the behavior of most modern text editors.

I don’t have specific recommendations, but suspect this can be done using standard OS X Services or third-party text manipulation utilities. Ideally for whoever wants it, of course, DN would also support it directly.

How do you do this?

One method (in an RTF document) is to hold Option+Command and select text using the mouse. (Nisus, Bean, TextEdit, etc., use the same method).
