I still did not find specific solution for this.
I would like spaces in new lines to align to first word after ❰ ❱
What I need is similar to following condition:
Somewhat indented text RET
in the next line follows
aligned to the first word
❰ ❱ Then in this line I would like that ❰ ❱
is ignored so that next line get aligned
to the first word in this paragraph "Then".
