I'd be super-happy if someone could help me with the following Textmate behaviour.
a. The cursor is in any line that has more characters than the previous line, like so:
line 1 | ¬ line 2 | 12345¬
When the cursor is at the end (column 6) of line 2 and moved up one line then it stays in column 6, i.e. behind the ¬ end-of-line marker of line 1. Like this:
line 1 | ¬ x line 2 | 12345¬
b. When now return/enter is hit so that a new line gets inserted then there are also spaces inserted (filling up the place between the end- of-line marker and the previous place of the cursor) in line 1.
line 1 | ¬ line 2 | ¬ line 3 | 12345¬
Is there any reasoning behind this? It feels really strange to me and conflicts with several editing habits of mine.
While editing code the insertion of whitespace in line 1 actually leads to masses of whitespace cluttered all over the place. I can't imagine that this is intentional. :)
Any hints?

Sounds like freehanded editing is enabled. Look under Edit -> Mode. This is often triggered by accident via its shortcut, opt-cmd-E.

That's it. I probably triggered that shortcut accidentally.
Thanks very much, Haris!
