Yes, it IS possible to change the level of identation of a block.
(But you must have at least TEMPUS 2.00)
Just mark this block with the blockmarks. Now you can move the grey block
with <CONTROL-SPACE> to the right and with <ALTERNATE-SPACE> to the left.
(or was it the other way round?)
Make a few experiments, to find out the correct use of this feature.

A further remark to earlier postings:
 It is possible to change the keyboard-layout of Tempus, so that you can
make your own setup. So you can also make a layout in the way of the
Turbo-Pascal-Editor on the IBM. (But Tempus is much more powerful!)
You can also define own macros. It is even possible to use your own
set of characters. I have changed the whole characterset to IBM-layout.
(I don't know anyone that uses hebrew (correct english???) characters, but
many peope would like to have the graphic-characters.)

Every possible function you can use with the mouse is also available with
the keyboard. And every single key can be redefined!

That's a small 'clipping rectangle' of my decision to favourite Tempus.
I hope that not to much people stumble about my english...
