OK. So, to select code, you can use visual mode (v) or line visual mode
(V).  Then, once your lines are selected, you can use the < or >
operator to indent backward or forward.  If you want to indent just one
line, put your cursor on that line (not in visual mode) and use << or >>
depending on the direction.

Hope this was what you wanted.
