Drafts Directory: Smart Tab

Action

Posted by jochi, Last update over 2 years ago

Inserts a tab the beginning of each of the selected lines.

If it is a list (starts with a tab followed by a “-“, “*”, or “+” followed by a space), it will indent and move the cursor to the end of the line.

Steps

script

// list patterns
const list_re = /(^\t*[-*+] )/gm;

// grab state
let [lnStart, lnLen] = editor.getSelectedLineRange();
let lnText = editor.getTextInRange(lnStart, lnLen);
let [selStart, selLen] = editor.getSelectedRange();

let indent_lines = (l) => {

	let lines;

	if (l.match(list_re)) {
		lines = l.replace(list_re, "\t$1");
	} else {
		lines = l.replace(/^/gm,"\t");
	}
	return lines;

}

let tabbed_text = indent_lines(lnText);
editor.setTextInRange(lnStart, lnLen, tabbed_text);
editor.setSelectedRange(selStart + 1);
