The following table outlines the automatic indentation supported by the COBOL editor.
When the ENTER key is pressed | All of the space and tab characters at or after the cursor position are moved to the next line together with the text, and the cursor is moved to the beginning of the line. |
When multiple lines of text are pasted | The text is pasted at the current cursor position, and then is pasted in subsequent lines without placing any extra space or tab characters at the beginning of each subsequent line. |
When the text selected from the input support candidate list is inserted | All of the space and tab characters at the beginning of the current line are also pasted to each new line. |
