Re: [Bug-indent] brace-line-up feature mod for indent

[david ingamells]

Daniel,
Thank you for you efforts. However this feature is already present in indent, 
as you would have seen if you had studied the documentation. Here is the 
appropriate text:

==============================
if (x > 0)
  {
    x--;
  }


If you use the `-bl' option, you may also want to specify the `-bli' option. 
This option specifies the number of spaces by which braces are indented. 
`-bli2', the default, gives the result shown above.
===========================

I will therefore not need your patch.
David.
