Add your own group if you wish.] To all those who use (X)Emacs's CC Mode to edit C, C++, Java, Objective-C, Pike, AWK or IDL: To help direct the development of CC Mode, it would be useful to find out how people use the auto-newline "minor mode" facility. If you could spare a little time, would you answer these questions, please: o Do you program with auto-newline switched on (e.g. do you get NLs inserted automatically after typing a `;' or `{')? o Did you configure this auto-newline setting yourself, and if not, are you happy with it? o Are you aware of the key binding C-c C-a to toggle this mode on and off? o How often do you use C-c C-a (or even C-c C-t) to toggle auto-newline mode? o In which language(s) (C, C++, ....) do you program in (X)Emacs? Further pertinent comments are, of course, welcome. Thanks in advance for your time. -- Alan Mackenzie (Munich, Germany) Email: aacm@muuc.dee; to decode, wherever there is a repeated letter (like "aa"), remove half of them (leaving, say, "a").
