Re: Select All and Indent (W.E.Taylor)
......start of snip ......
You can just select what you want to indent, one line or all lines, and
then select 'indent more'.
......end of snip ......

I am really at a loss to explain differently what it is I am looking
for.
I think that I am looking for programming feature in BlueJ that will
properly indent lines of code all at once using a click "select all"
then a second click "indent line(s)" according to that algorithm that
will take this model:

public class WhichLarger { //reports which of the two input numbers is
larger

public static void main(String[] args) {
String xread,yread;
double x = 0.0;
double y = 0.0;
System.out.println ("Give two numbers!");
InputStreamReader keyboard = new InputStreamReader(System.in);
BufferedReader in = new BufferedReader(keyboard);
try{
xread = in.readLine();
x = Integer.parseInt(xread);
yread = in.readLine();
y = Integer.parseInt(yread);
//x = Read.getDouble();
//y = Read.getDouble();
} // end of try
catch (Exception e) {
e.printStackTrace();
}

if (x > y)
System.out.println("The first number is larger.");
else if (x < y)
System.out.println("The second number is larger.");
else
System.out.println("The numbers are equal.");
}

And  produces this:
