I am looking at my "RTF Made Easy" and beefing it up some. In the middle of it I found I somehow broke the display. So I set out to find what part I made a mistake in, and found it is much easier to troubleshoot when the actual code is more like PB where you can indent, and read easier to find a missing semi-colon or some character out of place.
So I started looking at formatting the actual string as something I can read, which led me to wonder if Fields is what I need to do so the text of each indent is in its own "Field" (or indented and out-dented as needed) to make things more readable.
Does anyone have a good example of how something like this could be shown in a tabular type of format? (something like, each "Field" is indented 5 spaces from the other, but if I field is 80 chars long instead of 60 then the full thing takes care of itself?) or am I stuck at keeping track of the "Longest Field" and then adjust my display accordingly.
(Do NOT worry about fonts, I plan on Courier so that regardless the size of the characters, they are displayed with the same spacing)
