Do you want `indent-region'? C-M-\

If not, I'm not quite sure what you mean by "format code".

Yup

You guys have lowered the suicide rate in Southern Cal by one today.
Thanks.

I still think it should be findable by searching on `format'.
If Eli sees this, I think he might fix it so it is.

I am using Emacs 21.2 on Win 2000.  I want to be able to paste text
using the middle button of the mouse.  I have a Logitech 3-button mouse
which I can set so that the middle button behaves like a middle button.

But the middle button does not paste in Emacs, is there a line I need in
my .emacs file to force this behaviour?
