Emacs: selective c-auto-newline
- by Yktula
When c-auto-newline is set to non-nil, it re-indents the current line and inserts a carriage return and then indents the new line. However. I'm using 1TBS indent-style, which means if/else statements are made like this:
if (n == 1) {
exit(EXIT_SUCCESS);
} else {
perror("n");
}
Also, I write do/while write loops like this:
do {
printf("%d\n", n++);
} while (n < 64);
As such, while I do want a newline automatically inserted after every opening brace and semicolon, I don't want newlines to be automatically inserted after an if statement or do loop is concluded with a closing brace.
How can I have GNU Emacs (23.2.1, *nix) selectively insert newlines like that? Along the same lines, can I have Emacs insert an opening brace, a newline, and a closing brace on another newline, while putting the cursor in the middle of the two braces after closing parentheses following an if statement, function declaration, and the like?
