indented-text-mode
>From the description:
indented-text-mode is an alias for `text-mode' in `textmodes/text-mode'.
(indented-text-mode)
Major mode for editing text written for humans to read.
In this mode, paragraphs are delimited only by blank or white lines.
You can thus get the full benefit of adaptive filling
(see the variable `adaptive-fill-mode').
key binding
--- -------
TAB indent-relative
ESC Prefix Command
ESC S center-paragraph
ESC s center-line
ESC TAB ispell-complete-word
Turning on Text mode runs the normal hook `text-mode-hook'.
