The current output of this is:
function foo() {
if (1 < 2)
something1
else
something2
fi
return
}
instead of
function foo() {
if (1 < 2)
something1
else
something2
fi
return
}
This is because the list has this contents:
"if (1 < 2)" "\n"
" something1" "\n"
"else" "\n"
" something2" "\n"
"fi"
So the indentation that you see inside the resulting "if" block is the
indentation that is internal to the `list' expression, ignoring the
context. Here's a more exaggerated example:
#lang scribble/text
function foo() {
newline
@list{if (1 < 2)
something1
else
something2
fi
}
return
}
prints:
function foo() {
newline
if (1 < 2)
something1
else
something2
fi
return
}
