Lines: 21 Well, as long as we're doing indentation problems . . . I like to indent this way: status = function_with_many_args( first_in_the_series_of_arguments, second_in_this_thrilling_series, this_stuff_just_goes_on_and_on, the_point_being_that_one_needs_several_lines_to_do_this, well, you_get_the_idea ); C mode assumes you want to indent to where the left paren is. I don't. Any suggestions? ::::.-----.:::::<_Jym_>::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::: :::/ | \::::.-----.:::::::::::::::: Jym Dyer ::::::::::::::::: ::/ | \::/ o o \::::::::::::: jym@nli.com :::::::::::::::: ::\ /|\ /::\ \___/ /::::::::: Natural Languages, Inc. :::::::: :::\ / | \ /::::`-----':::::::::: Berserkeley, California :::::::: ::::`-----':::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::::
