auto-indent

I'm trying to get VIM to indent Javascript with the '=' and related commands. When I try to auto indent the following, for example: new function($) { $.fn.setCursorPosition = function(pos) { if ($(this).setSelectionRange) { $(this).setSelectionRange(pos, pos); } else if ($(this).createTextRange) { var range = $(this).createTextRange(); range.collapse(true); range.moveEnd('character', pos); range.moveStart('character', pos); range.select(); } The result is the rather absurd: new function($) { $.fn.setCursorPosition = function(pos) { if ($(this).setSelectionRange) { $(this).setSelectionRange(pos

I am new to Brackets.io and thought I saw a shortcut key to auto indent/format HTML, however I cannot find a shortcut. Is there a shortcut or add-on that will do this for me? Zac Smith I found an add-on for Brackets.io that uses auto-indent called Indentator. It uses shortcut keys Ctrl + Alt + I You can install an indentator package. Click on File > Extension Manager... . Look for the search field and type: Indentator > Install Once Indentator is installed, you can use Ctrl + Alt + I Beautify does a good job. It provides a "Beautify on save" option, so that you may use ctrl+s to reformate html

I'm new to emacs, and its indenting is driving me up the walls. It's too smart for its own good; it (incorrectly) thinks it knows how I want to format my source, but I don't have time to chase down every setting for every mode for every different language that I write code for; and many of those languages don't have any mode enabled at all. Here's the behaviour I'd like: TAB inserts indent RET inserts a new line then copies the blank characters from the start of the previous line to the first non-blank character, or end of line, whichever comes sooner DEL (backspace key) in the blank text

I've been programming Python with Vim for a while but one thing I haven't been able to figure out how to do it set it to auto indent to the level of the last open paren. According to pep8 if you have an open paren and you need to break the line to fit in 80 columns then you're supposed to continue the next line at that open paren. Example: calling_some_really_long_function(that, has, way, too, many, arguments, to, fit, on, one, line) Obviously this is a crazy example, but that's how you're supposed to break your lines in python. What I'd really like to be able to do is set up Vim so that when

How to set vim to not indent namespace content in C++? namespace < identifier > { < statement_list > // Unwanted indentation } Surprisingly, 'cinoptions' doesn't provide a way to edit namespace content indentation. Not sure when it was introduced but my installed version of vim, v7.3.353 has a cino option that handles cpp namespace explicitly. I am currently using the example value: cino=N-s and as per :help cinoptions-values NN Indent inside C++ namespace N characters extra compared to a normal block. (default 0). cino= cino=N-s namespace { namespace { void function(); void function(); } }

I find the autoindent style of Notepad++ a little weird: when I am typing on an indented line, I do want it to indent the next line after I press Enter (this it does properly). However, when I am on an empty line (no indentation, no characters) and I press Enter, it indents the next line, using the same indentation as the last non-empty line. I find this extremely annoying; have you ever encountered this problem and do you know how to fix it? (Note: I'm editing HTML/PHP files.) (Also, suggestions of other good free editors for HTML/PHP are welcome, in case there is no way of changing this
