Thanks.
I think the complicating factor for me is that I use my own syntax, with
macros instead of curly brackets ({}). This is not generally liked in the
C++ world, but it works well for me. For example:-
#define THEN { // Macro for modified syntax
// etc...
int x = 10;
if (x ==9)
THEN
// Do Something
ELSEIF (x == 9)
THEN
// Do something else
ELSE
// Do yet another thisg
ENDIF
I doubt whether any of the existing indenting styles can cope with this, so
I suppose I'll need to write a new configuration.
Until I know how to do this, I would like a very simple behaviour in which
pressing tab simply causes the relevant number of spaces to be inserted.
