Thanks for your reply, Alan! Actually, this is my c-mode-common-hook
right now (edited today but before I saw this reply):
(defun my-c-mode-common-hook ()
;; my customizations for all of c-mode and related modes
(message "Running my-c-mode-common-hook")
(setq c-basic-offset 3)
; Use spaces, not tabs, for indentation.
(setq-default indent-tabs-mode nil)
; Replace C-m (C-m == <RET> == newline) with C-j (newline-and-indent).
(define-key c-mode-base-map "\C-m" 'newline-and-indent)
; Maybe on by default on windows and off by default on solaris?
(delete-selection-mode 1)
; Since this is run for php-mode we want to be able to toggle to html
; mode while editing a .php-file with both php and html blocks.
; html-mode contains a key binding to toggle to php mode.
(define-key c-mode-base-map "\C-c\C-h" 'html-mode)
)
(add-hook 'c-mode-common-hook 'my-c-mode-common-hook)
I will try c-context-line-break and also think about which of these I
can move into the initialization hook.
