I would like to suggest that the rules for automatic indentation be externally defined. We use a style of brace indentation that does not including dropping the trailing brace back one level.
TextPad supports only:
Code: Select all
public static void myFunction() {
...
}
and I would like to have:
Code: Select all
public static void myFunction() {
...
}
Another common style that is precluded is:
Code: Select all
public static void myFunction()
{
...
}
At the very least a separate checkbox each for whether to indent the opening '{' and the closing '}' would be nice.

This is sometimes implemented with "Expand/Collapse blocks of text"
or "Folding", feel free to vote for it
here .
Then I open up and see

I love the collapsing block idea...
And
Lawrence I totally agree with you, it would be really nice to be able to use automated indentation, I use the least popular form, eg:
Code: Select all
public static void myFunction()
{
...
}
