in the matlab editor the smart indenting is like this in this case:

vec = [...
    one;...
    two;...
    three];

Not that this is necessarily what should be done. Personally I would prefer

vec = [...
       one;...
       two;...
       three ];

In matlab this can be achieved by manually setting the spacing in the 
first newline which is then copied to subsequent lines by the auto-indent.
