Hi,
I have a tcl file that uses procedures with lots of parms.
Consequently, I often have to span multiple lines.
Example
blit -a <some parm> -b <some parm> -c <some parm> ...
To span multiple lines, you need to use the backslash ("\") as a
continuation.
Example:
blit \
-a <some parm> \
-b <some parm> \
-c <some parm>
But, I prefer a format where all the backslashes are placed in a
specific column. It would then look more like this:
blit \
-a <some parm> \
-b <some parm> \
-c <some parm>
...which makes the continuations obvious.
Is there any way to do one of the following in emacs:
1) automagically put the continuation at a specific column number
OR
2) use some sort of command (regex?) to insert the needed spaces up to
a certain column and then put in a backslash?
TIA,
-T
