 |
|
I have a bunch of sentences like this
blue: is a good color
orgishblue: is alright man but I don't know
I want to make them look like
| Code: |
blue: is a good color
orangishblue: is alright man but I don't know |
so the lines after the colon are at about the same reading level
anyone know how to make them all do that?

When I typed it in, it delete my empty spaces. but what I want it to do is by the : I want it to indent so I can read them all well.
so the message about blue and the message about orangish are at the same level of indentation |

Select the sentences then click on the horizontal ruler to set a tab where you want "is" to start.
Do a find and replace:
Search = :
Replace = :\t
Under More Options check Regular Expressions. |
