Hi all,
I'm posting this following a suggestion from Stefan on a discussion on
Emacs' stackexchange site at https://emacs.stackexchange.com/questions/16942/
Emacs' indentation of Emacs Lisp code is really great, except for one thing:
(defconst one-to-ten '(one two three
four five six seven
eight nine ten))
Is this actually the preferred way to indent this block? As opposed to
(defconst one-to-ten '(one two three
four five six seven
eight nine ten))
I find it especially confusing when compared to the default for alists:
(defconst one-to-ten '((one . 1) (two . 2) (three . 3)
(four . 4) (five . 5) (six . 6) (seven . 7)
(eight . 8) (nine . 9) (ten . 10)))
Is there a reason for this behaviour? I could possibly understand it for
back-quoted lists, as it would yield better indentation for macros, but
what about lists? On stackexchange, Oleh suggested using
(setq lisp-indent-function 'common-lisp-indent-function)
Cheers,
Clément.
