I agree that I like "smart indentation", although it does seem to do one thing that I didn't expect: auto-indent and unindent on curly braces. I'm more used to just preserving the previous line's indentation without special casing curly braces. Anybody know if there is a way to just get flat indentation without this special case?

I use the "smart indentation" feature and I think it works fine the way it is. It may not be perfect, but in most cases it does exactly what it's supposed to.

If previous line is empty, it removes indent assuming that single empty line is an empty indent. Smart indentation for multiple lines is absolutely awful: it doesn't take into account internal sub-indents and makes selection "flat". It's a lie, this feature isn't smart, it just sets the same indentation than the previous line. Is anybody using this? I doubt it Under "smart" indentation people assume astyle, php-beautifier and so on: http://stackoverflow.com/questions/18828162/smart-auto-indentation-available-in-geany Yeah, we know we should have a nice (and complex) system for configurable smart indentation, but every time we tried to think about it we discovered that some languages are so crazy that it's really not simple, and probably would require some specific code for some languages (did I say Haskell?). And nobody did the filetypes plugins yet :( However, you might be able to use some indenters tools from Geany using custom commands to some extent. In a similar way, I once started a multi-indernters plugin, but I didn't finish it for various reasons, one being my lack of much interest in it (I'd rather work on a solution for configurable and nice thing for Geany than on wrapping gnuindent, astyle or others, tools I never really used). If anyone is interested, it's here: https://github.com/b4n/grind And for "smart" indentation/formatting, I have written a plugin which works with C, C++, Objective-C (and I think I remember they talked about JS support) by using clang-format.
