Range-based indenting? [message #1776973]

How does LDT allow to indent just a selection of the code? I've had a look at the formatter.lua that's used and it doesn't seem to have that option, it can only indent the whole block.

I'm looking to use the formatter in my project as well and would like to provide the users with an option to format just a section of the code, so I'm reaching out here for advice!

AFAIK, we format the whole file then we replace only the selected line. As the formatter is not really a formatter but just an indenter this should be ok.

See : https://git.eclipse.org/c/ldt/org.eclipse.ldt.git/tree/plugins/org.eclipse.ldt.ui/src/org/eclipse/ldt/ui/internal/editor/formatter/LuaFormatter.java#n120
