AJK> The following code segment displays different indentation AJK> behavior for multi-line function calls. If first arg is a AJK> quoted string, next line's indentation is incorrect. If 1st AJK> arg is not a quoted string, everything is OK. I've changed the follow up to xemacs-beta instead of bug-gnu-emacs. I wonder if we should likewise change c-help-address temporarily during the XEmacs beta phase? Especially since I can't reproduce your problem under XEmacs 20.4 with our working version of CC Mode. I can't see why a string as the first arg would make the difference. What does C-c C-s on the continuation lines? Here's what I get using your settings. -------------------- snip snip -------------------- int test_Post (void) { printf ("hello\n", xx); /* ((arglist-cont-nonempty . 27)) */ fopen (x,y, z); /* ((arglist-cont-nonempty . 132)) */ fubar ("xyzzy", xxx); /* ((arglist-cont-nonempty . 231)) */ } -------------------- snip snip -------------------- Don't worry so much if your relpos's are off, but those lines should all be arglist-cont-nonempty. -Barry
