Subject: C++ mode for GNU emacs


   Is there a way to have the GNU emacs c-mode indent in the following form:...

I tried typing your sample C code and it came out like this:

function(arg1, arg2)
     char arg1,*arg2;
{
  
  if (bogus)
    {
      firstfunc();
      that();
    }
  else
    blah_blah();
  switch (This)
    {
    case BOB;
    break;
    default:
  }
}
nextfunc()
{
}



If this is close enough to what you want I'll be glad to explain how I did it.
Happily, this only involves resetting some variables and a judicious use of 
the LFD key. I'm not a Lisp hacker either.
