Hi,

Well, sort of, or rather Geany has missed something, Ruby specific
support for indenting :)

Geany autoindent is almost language independent, it knows how to:

1. go to the same indent as last line
2. indent and unindent on { and }
3. as a special case only, indent on : in Python

None of these will work for Ruby IIUC.

What it needs is for someone to specify the algorithm, and to provide
a plugin that implements it (such language specific stuff shouldn't be
in core)

Cheers
Lex
