Increase Line Indent

Moves the selected line or paragraph to the right, adding an additional level of indentation. This is useful for organizing text hierarchically, such as in outlines or nested lists.

Shortcut: Tab

Decrease Line Indent

Moves the selected line or paragraph to the left, reducing the level of indentation. This helps in restructuring the text to a higher level in the hierarchy or aligning it with less indented text.

Shortcut: Shift+Tab

Set Read-Only

Sets the Windows Operating System (OS) read-only attribute on the current document. This prevents further editing until the read-only flag is cleared. This is useful for protecting the file from accidental modification.

Clear Read-Only Flag

Clears the Windows Operating System (OS) read-only attribute on the file, allowing it to be edited again. Use this command if you need to make changes to a previously protected text file.
