Thanks for the info. I'll do that and see how close I'll get to perfection. Currently my environment suits me so well that I rarely do hand formatting of code anymore. It is great to be able to just type in, and see your code formatted exactly as you want. :-) BTW, is there an easy way to distinguish between the bracelist-close of the structure initializer from the bracelist-close of the array initializer in an array of structure case? What I want is something like: struct_type_t test[] = { { &var1, sizeof(var1) }, { &var2, sizeof(var2) } }; What you suggest would end up with struct_type_t test[] = { { &var1, sizeof(var1) }, { &var2, sizeof(var2) } }; Which requires one manual correction. :-) Cheers, vedat _______________________________________________ Help-gnu-emacs mailing list Help-gnu-emacs@gnu.org http://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/help-gnu-emacs
