Only change from 1.08ay is a new rule for indenting the first item in an
unclosed paren/brace/bracket structure, when the first item isn't on the
same line as the opening paren(etc). Now it indents py-indent-offset
columns beyond the indentation of the line containing the opening paren.
As before, items after the first strive to line up under the first item.
As a result, only two lines ("*" in column 1) in the following now need
hand-fiddling, and assuming py-indent-offset is 8 (what I believe it was
for the people who sent these):
weekday_translations = {
'Monday': 'Maandag',
'Tuesday': 'Dinsdag',
...
* }
self.tbox = Box({
* 'alignment' : vp.VCENTER,
'stretchability': (vp.FIXED, vp.ELASTIC),
'child_list' :[
ToggleButton({
'name' : 'edit',
'radio_group' : rg,
'callback' : self.SetDrawToolCB,
'use_indicator' : vp.FALSE,
'stretchability': (vp.ELASTIC, vp.FIXED)
}),
ToggleButton({
'name' : 'rect',
'radio_group' : rg,
'callback' : self.SetDrawToolCB,
'use_indicator' : vp.FALSE,
'stretchability': (vp.ELASTIC, vp.FIXED)
})
]
})
In the 2nd example, indentations of both 10 and 8 were used, and I
couldn't think of a comprehensible rule to deliver the "10" one by magic
("indent first item to line up under '=' sign" appears to be the one at
work, but that often doesn't work well ... better to get a consistent 8
(= whatever py-indent-offset is for you), and fiddle it to taste).
Note that the "py-indent-offset + baseline indentation" rule only applies
if there's nothing interesting on the base line after the open bracket.
If you put the first item _on_ the base line, other items still line up
with it; e.g.,
except ( OverflowError, NameError,
(ZeroDivisionError, f( x,
y,
z ))):

- A Bad Idea
- Always put something on the initial line of a multi-line statement
- besides the backslash! E.g., don't do this:
-
- \t\\
- \ta = b # what's the indentation of this stmt?
-
- While that's legal Python, it's silly & would be very expensive for
- Python mode to handle correctly.

statement has `:' as its last significant (non-whitespace and non-
comment) character. If the suggested indentation is too much, use
\\[py-delete-char] to reduce it.
+
+ Continuation lines are given extra indentation. If you don't like the
+ suggested indentation, change it to something you do like, and Python-
+ mode will strive to indent later lines of the statement in the same way.
+
+ If a line is a continuation line by virtue of being in an unclosed
+ paren/bracket/brace structure (`list', for short), the suggested
+ indentation depends on whether the current line contains the first item
+ in the list. If it does, it's indented py-indent-offset columns beyond
+ the indentation of the line containing the open bracket. If you don't
+ like that, change it by hand. The remaining items in the list will mimic
+ whatever indentation you give to the first item.
+
+ If a line is a continuation line because the line preceding it ends with
+ a backslash, the third and following lines of the statement inherit their
+ indentation from the line preceding them. The indentation of the second
+ line in the statement depends on the form of the first (base) line: if
+ the base line is an assignment statement with anything more interesting
+ than the backslash following the leftmost assigning `=', the second line
+ is indented two columns beyond that `='. Else it's indented to two
+ columns beyond the leftmost solid chunk of non-whitespace characters on
+ the base line.
Warning: indent-region should not normally be used! It calls \\[indent-for-tab-command]
repeatedly, and as explained above, \\[indent-for-tab-command] can't guess the block
