Hanging Indent? how in Sesame?

In Q&A reports, you could specify the size of a hanging indent on subsequent lines when the data was longer than the width of the print field. 

I have data that is 30-100 characters long and I need to print 30 characters per line and hanging indent the remaining data on following lines.   

Is this still possible?

There is no "built-in" hanging indent setting.

You can probably do it with programming.

Maybe a silly question but what exactly is a hanging indent? What is the purpose of it?

Thanks

When data is longer than the line, the next line(s) will be indented.
An example...

this is stuff
   more indented stuff
   even more indented stuff

I did figure out that I can (in my word processor) search and replace Hard Carraige Returns with the HRT, Indent, Back Tab codes.   So that problem is solved.  Now to the next problem...
