Typing Block (Automatic) Indent Text - Xerox 820-II Word Processing Applications And Reference Manual

TYPING BLOCK (AUTOMATIC) INDENT TEXT
Block (or automatic) indent means that all lines of a paragraph are indented, as shown
I
in the first picture below. /
Frequently, text will need to be indented to show its relation to the other
text in the document.
This block indent paragraph is indented five spaces from the margin
and follows a paragraph that is not indented at all.
The 820-11 will allow you to indent all the lines of a paragraph with the
automatic indent feature.
Your system will automatically indent every line of a paragraph when you press
CTRL & 4 before you press the TAB key. By pressing CTRL & 4 before you press the
TAB key, you are telling the system, "I want to indent every line of this paragraph."
You can then type the paragraph without pressing the RETURN key until the end of
the paragraph. Pressing the RETURN key cancels the automatic indent and moves
the typing position back to the left margin.
When you press CTRL & 4, the Format (display) Menu will be brought to the screen.
You can see that it shows TAB

automatic indent.
