Keyboard shortcut to "untab" (move a block of code to the left) in eclipse / aptana?

Well, hopefully the question is self-explanatory.

It's so easy to select a block of code and tab out, but how about the reverse?

Currently, I just search & replace for whitespace at the beginning of the line. Anything faster?

Solution 1:

In Visual Studio and most other half decent IDEs you can simply do SHIFT+TAB. It does the opposite of just TAB.

I would think and hope that the IDEs you mention support this as well.

Solution 2:

Shift-tab outdents again :)
