(brace-else-brace brace-elseif-brace brace-catch-brace empty-defun-braces one-liner-defun defun-close-semi space-before-funcall compact-empty-funcall)) I have noticed a minor annoying edge case that can be best illustrated as given by: int bazillion() { if(booz) { foo(); } // typing closing brace, issues newline else // no opening brace means `else´ isn't placed above bar(); } Since in my current setup typing `}' automatically issues a newline, emacs won't correctly place an else statement next to the closing brace above (as desired) *if it does not* contain an opening brace. For instance, this would work just fine: int bazillion() { if(booz) { foo(); } else { // else is moved up next to the closing brace bar(); // after typing the subsequent opening brace } } Is there are way of resolving this via a style setting perhaps such that `else´ statements without opening braces are correctly placed? Unsure if I made my question clear enough so please ask for clarification if in doubt.
