Indentation in python-mode has been fairly broken for me, I believe
since Emacs 24. The electric colon makes this especially annoying.
In the following, _ marks the position of point.
If I press RET here:
def foo(x):
if x:
return 2
else:
raise Foo_
I get this, which is correct.
def foo(x):
if x:
return 2
else:
raise Foo
_
Continuing typing:
def foo(x):
if x:
return 2
else:
raise Foo
for i in range(0, 10)_
So far, so good. Now press ‘:’:
def foo(x):
if x:
return 2
else:
raise Foo
for i in range(0, 10):_
Going from:
def foo(x):
if x:
x()
else:
y()
for i in range(0, 10)_
to:
def foo(x):
if x:
x()
else:
y()
for i in range(0, 10):_
is equally unhelpful.
For me, this makes editing Python scripts with Emacs a fairly painful
experience.
Surely this is a known issue because it has been around for so long.
Is this the behavior the python-mode maintainers prefer? I find this
hard to believe.
