lost line formatting

Blitz3D Forums/Blitz3D Beginners Area/lost line formatting

duh,
You know the code archives right,
Where they've got those bits of code in green text and black background right,
well how do you get them out of there, and into the blitz IDE?
I try selectAll in the Edit menu, but when I copy it into the BlitzIDE, or any text editor, the line formating is lost, and I get all the code cramed onto the first line of the text editor.
I'm fed up of having to painstakingly stick in EndOfLine characters in.
Please help someone

1) Triple-click the top line of the green code in the archives to select all of it.
2) Copy
3) From the Blitz IDE choose Menu>Edit>Paste instead of Ctrl-V

That should do it.

Ha! It's so simple when you know how.
Got used to using Ctrl-V. Well done for deducing that I did.
Thanks Mr Error
