Re: [vox-tech] emacs formatting
Thanks for all of the suggestions and comments. I did a little reading on programming styles... it turns out my favorite style is called BSD/Allman. :) I played around with the emacs customize screen for a while, then ended up manually added this entry in my .emacs file: (setq c-offsets-alist '((substatement-open . 0))) Charles ___ vox-tech mailing list vox-tech@lists.lugod.org http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech

Actually in PHP, C and Java you can omit the braces for a
single statement:
if (foo) do_something();
Or in Perl:
do_something() if (foo);

You should find everything you need in there. You can pretty much customize everything. When you hit the "Save for Future Sessions" button, it will automatically adjust your .emacs file appropriately and safely. -Micah ___ vox-tech mailing list vox-tech@lists.lugod.org http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech

This is the official GNU indentation style. It does have some nice things about
it... but lately I tend to use K&R style.

Re: [vox-tech] emacs formatting
I'm an amateur when it comes to emacs hacks, but I suspect you'll need
to add appropriate lines for each mode to your ~/.emacs file. Probably
cut and paste will do much of it, though.

apparently most of the world formats code like this:

That just doesn't work for me though. :)
Thanks in advance for any advice.

Heh. Yeah, yuck. I'll do this for one-liners, sometimes, though:
if (foo) { do_something(); }
I think I mostly do that in PHP, though, where you end up mashing HTML and
code together a lot.

This is my preferred style as well. I'm meeting more and more people who
prefer this style, so I think it's gaining popularity. I have seen this
though:
if(foo)
{ doSomething();
}
which is heretical. ;)

I agree. Doesn't float my_boat; BTW, this is how you're supposed to code in
the Linux kernel. The rationale is that it's still readable but conserves
virtual console rows, which at a standard 25, is at a premium. But for
someone working on an xterm, it makes no sense to conserve the number of
lines you're using to display code.

[vox-tech] emacs formatting
Hello,
I am hoping someone can point me in the write direction. I want to
change how emacs formats code. I'm very picky about spacing and
brackets. If I have to make the change for every mode that is fine, but
I'd prefer to make the change once and have it apply to all types of
code I use. The modes I'm mainly concerned about now are C/C++, PHP and
Perl.
