Fix indentation of LaTeX code without wrapping lines

Question

If I select everything in LaTeX-mode (AUCTeX) and auto-fill the region, the indentation of all lines is corrected. This is the part I like.

However, it also breaks all long lines (which I think is the actual purpose of that function). But I don't like hard line wrapping.

Is there a way I can fix the indentation of an entire file without the lines being wrapped in the actual text? Wrapping them in the displayed text is desired.

Answer 1

If you only want to indent a region, you should call an indenting function, not a filling function that, as you guessed, is meant to break lines.

For example, you can use C-M-\ (M-x indent-region RET) to indent the active region.
