Table Of Contents
Cursor beyond EOL: Select to make it possible to position the pointer beyond the last character
entered to date on a line of code. This is useful if you prefer to enter code by clicking the pointer at any
point on the line, rather than by manually entering characters or spaces to advance to that point. Clear
to restrict the places on the line where you can position the pointer, to only the characters entered to
date on that line.
Keep trailing spaces: Select to preserve any trailing spaces that occur at the end of a line.
Persistent blocks: Select to have any text you enter immediately after selecting a block of code
appended to that block of code as part of the selection. When you select this option, you can also use
the arrow keys to move within the code without affecting the selected code. You must select the Enable
selection option to use the Persistent blocks option.
Overwrite blocks: Select to have any text you enter immediately after selecting a block of code
replace that block of code. You must clear Persistent blocks and select Enable selection for this option to
have an effect.
Enable selection: Select to permit the creation of selections in the Code area. You can create a
selection by clicking and dragging the pointer over a portion of code or by double-clicking to highlight
the word or line that appears under the pointer. You can cut, copy, paste, and print selections. If you
also select Enable dragging, you can drag selections to reposition them in the code.
Enable dragging: Select to permit dragging and dropping a selection to reposition it in the program.
This option works only if you also select Enable selection.
Enable search highlight: Select to highlight the search term match found in the code when you
perform a search. Clear to prevent the highlighting. In both cases, the pointer appears just after the last
character of the search term match.
Double click line: Select to highlight the complete line of code when you double-click that line. Clear to
highlight only the word that appears under the pointer.
Find text at cursor: Use to set the behavior of the Find dialog box. Select to automatically copy the
word under the pointer into the Text to find box when you open the Find dialog box. Clear to prevent the
copy. If no previous search terms appear in the Text to find box, the Editor performs the copy
regardless of whether this option is selected or cleared.
Block indent: Enter the number of spaces to jump for each block indent. The default is 2 and the
maximum is 16. It is common to make the Block indent agree with the tab stops you enter in the Tab
stops box. You perform a block indent by selecting a region of code and then pressing CTRL+SHIFT+I
(to indent the code to the right) or CTRL+SHIFT+U (to move the code to the left).
Tab stops: Use either to set the number of spaces to advance when you enter a tab character or to set
a series of tab stops. Enter a single integer to set the number of spaces to advance with each tab. Enter
a sequence of two or more integers, each separated by a space, to specify tab stops. The sequence
must be in ascending order.
