;;; clean-aindent-mode.el --- Simple indent and unindent, trims indent white-space ;; This is free and unencumbered software released into the public domain. ;; (http://unlicense.org) ;; Author: peter marinov ;; Created: 2013-08-17 ;; Last: 2015-08-16 ;; Version: 1.5.0 ;; Package-Version: 20171017.2043 ;; License: C0 (public domain) ;; URL: https://github.com/pmarinov/clean-aindent-mode ;; Doc URL: http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/CleanAutoIndent ;; Keywords: indentation whitespace backspace ;; This file is not part of GNU Emacs. ;;; Commentary: ;; === Description of the features ;; 1. Extension of 'newline-and-indent' that keeps track of the last ;; auto-indent operation and, if it is abandoned, would take care to ;; trim down the unused white space characters. ;; ;; 2. Simple indent, if activated, where cursor is aligned with ;; indent of the lines above. ;; ;; 3. Backspace Unindent. Extension of M-backspace. ;; When cursor is in the indentation space of a line, or at the first ;; character and you press M-backspace it will move the entire line to ;; be aligned to the line above or any other that is with indentation ;; smaller than the current. ;; ;; Detailed documentation with example situations and screenshots: ;; http://www.emacswiki.org/emacs/CleanAutoIndent ;; ;; === To activate ;; 'M-x clean-aindent-mode' ;; or ;; add this to your init.el: ;; (clean-aindent-mode t) ;; ;; By default auto-indent is bound to 'C-j'. Bind it to 'RET' for most ;; convenient use of the features.
