Line commands affect entire lines or word-wrapped paragraphs. This submenu can be found under the Modify menu.
Sort
Sorts the selected lines or the entire document in ascending or descending alphanumerical order. Use the settings "Case Sensitive Sorting" and "Sort Removes Duplicates" on the Tools tab in the Options dialog box to control the result. Depending on the number of lines to sort and the amount of available RAM, this procedure may take quite long!
Join Lines
This command joins the current line to the next, or all selected lines together into a single line. Tabs and spaces at the beginning or end of such lines are removed. Blank lines are left untouched.
Split Lines
This command splits a word-wrapped line into individual lines. If word wrap is not enabled, this function will determine the length of each line based on the width of the editor window.
Reformat Lines
This command lets you define a left margin and text width (in characters), and reformats the selection or the current line by inserting hard breaks at the line boundaries and indenting the whole block. An option lets you determine whether the text is left and right justified. This command is not available in the Freeware version of NoteTab Std (unless the "View | Commercial Features" menu command has been activated).
Adjust Line Breaks
Use this command on documents (for example UNIX or Mac files) that do not display lines with standard carriage return + line feed characters.
Compress
Documents received from Web browsers often have a blank line between every normal line, producing a double-spacing effect. Use this command to remove this double spacing.
Trim Blanks
This command removes trailing blank and tab characters from the end of the current line or selected lines.
Indent
The indent command adds a specified number of blanks or tabs at the beginning of the current line or all selected lines. By default, one blank character is added each time you invoke this command. You can choose to use blank characters or tabs, or specify a larger number of indent characters by changing the settings on the Tools tab in the Options dialog box.
Unindent
Unindent does the exact opposite of the Indent command.
Insert Bullets
Inserts bullets at the beginning of each line. The bullet character can be changed by editing the "Bullet Character" field on the General tab in the Options dialog box.
Number Lines
Inserts numbers at the beginning of each line. NoteTab will prompt you for the starting number. The number separator can be changed by editing the "Number Separator" field on the General tab in the Options dialog box.
