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.

the word that appears under the pointer.

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.
