I write a fair amount : of Scheme and I find it tough going in sam. But the redirection mechanism inside sam allows you to pipe arbitrary blocks of text through Unix pipelines -- write a scheme indentation tool, select your block of Lisp and then use the ``|'' command in the command window to pipe it through the formatter... This is obviously _a_ solution, it is just not the one I'm used to. I'm still used to the editor indenting on the fly. As I wrote, maybe I've been spoilt and just need to adjust the sam way of thinking. bevan
