Re: [libreoffice-users] Writer auto indenting?

Hi :)
I think the easy answer is, put a tab (and the extra space?) in front of
the 1st line;
"
<tab> This is my first line of typing. <Press Enter>
<tab> Type another line. <Press Enter>
Now I want this line to begin at the same place as the previous line, at
the "T" in the word "Type".
"

This is not going against what Brian was saying, just cutting it down to
the specific use-case asked about.
Regards from
Tom :)
