Commands for C Indentation
Here are special features for indentation in C mode and related modes:
C-c C-q
- Reindent the current top-level function definition or aggregate type
declaration (
c-indent-defun).
C-M-q
- Reindent each line in the balanced expression that follows point
(
c-indent-exp). A prefix argument inhibits error checking and
warning messages about invalid syntax.
<TAB>
- Reindent the current line, and/or in some cases insert a tab character
(
c-indent-command).
If c-tab-always-indent is t, this command always reindents
the current line and does nothing else. This is the default.
If that variable is nil, this command reindents the current line
only if point is at the left margin or in the line's indentation;
otherwise, it inserts a tab (or the equivalent number of spaces,
if indent-tabs-mode is nil).
Any other value (not nil or t) means always reindent the
line, and also insert a tab if within a comment, a string, or a
preprocessor directive.
To reindent the whole current buffer, type C-x h C-M-\. This
first selects the whole buffer as the region, then reindents that
region.
To reindent the current block, use C-M-u C-M-q. This moves
to the front of the block and then reindents it all.
