Left justified.

Just the first line is indented (i.e., the way it looks).

Just the first line is indented (i.e., the way it looks).

HOWEVER(!), the following seems to work:

    --> [@
    This text block is 
    preformatted and indented.
    @]

as well as

    %block margin-left=100px% [@
    This text is preformatted
    and indented.
    @]

and of course

    >>margin-left=100px border="2px dotted blue"<< [@
    This text is preformatted 
    and indented, and inside a box.
    @]

and even

    >>rframe<< [@
    This text is preformatted
    inside of a right-floating frame. @]
