"The Revolution script editor automatically pretty-prints the current
handler when you place the insertion point somewhere in the handler and
press Return or Tab."
I agree that <tab> works in this way, but I use <return> all of the
time, and the formatting is often incorrect. Am I missing something, or
is the above sentence either partly or entirely wrong (as regards <return>).
