[Tutor] question about python in Emacs

[Isaac Hall]

Hi all, 
I have a question about python mode in xemacs that I was wondering if 
anyone can answer.  Is there a way to highlight a block of text and then 
indent the whole block, instead of indenting one line at a time.  I do not 
know much about writing emacs modes or reading them, so I really cant tell 
for myself.  I was hoiping there was, because it would be very nice when 
you decide that an if statement or some other flow control should go 
around a big block of code.  Anyway, I know its a stupid question and 
doesnt really have to do with python (except that it is in the python mode
of emacs).  Feel free to comment on how lazy I am in any responses...I 
dont mind  :)
