I personally like the default. Unfortunately, the company
I work for uses the style I mentioned at the top.
This is mostly surprising to me because it's really the
only indentation issue I've ever run into using emacs.
Everything else has been customizable regardless of
whatever bizarro coding standard I've had to use, which
is impressive.

Yes, that was a poor example. I was thinking more
of the sorts of long lines you tend to get when working
in C++ with iterators, in which case I'm trying to get it
to look like this:
for (auto iter = RidiculouslyLongClassName.begin();
iter < RidiculouslyLongClassName.end();
++iter)
{
...
}
As it is right now, I keep having to remember to fix the
indentation manually, which has been driving me nuts.
If there's a known way to change this behavior, or if you
have an idea on where to start looking at how to do this,
I'd love to hear it. Just not sure where to start.
Thanks and regards,
Gregory
