    You can actually simplify this with styles. One of the hidden features is that when you hit return you can have one style switch to another.

    And you can make keyboard shortcuts to switch to a particular style

    With this functionality i have made some cool easy to use templates for writing scripts and you can even speed up some stuff like static webpage design, although word is hardly the best tool for that.

    Word is like the ultimate swiss army knife word processor: It’s not so good at anything that it should be your first choice, but comes in handy when you have to control workflow for collaborating on something. Almost everybody has access to it usually at most workplaces.

      Yes, but you’d still have to set this up manually and save it as a template. And if you change typefaces or fonts you gotta do it all over again.

      Ideally this should all be able to be automatically automated as a predefined style type built into word so that indentation is consistent.
