TAB OUT OF CONTROL
-
Didn’t want an “account” with Notepad++, just some simple answers. I’ve been using the software for maybe 10 years as a simple text editor and I am beginning to wonder if going back to Windows Notepad or Wordpad would server me better.
The download of the help file is completely useless, brings only the title page and none of the links work.
There’s no way to search the online help either.
I have no idea this message will get through and by the time I get an answer, I will be done with my 30 minute text task. I actually spent more time trying to figure it out at this website than completing my original task.
What task? All I wanted to do is use word wrap and intent the first line with a tab character, you know, like normal writing and typing. Once tab is invoked, it repeats on every subsequent line. BAD, BAD, BAD.

Have you ever used a web site?
Most have something like this:

Couldn’t you not whine, and just ask a civilized question, like “How do I do this?”
You obtained this:
And to get what you wanted all you had to do was select this:
But you’re long gone now, back to Notepad.exe.
Lucky you.
