Re: c-auto-newline question

[Luca Ferrari]

At last I got it:
1) I was using add-to-list in a wrong way, and therefore now the
auto-newline works as I want
2) the autocomplete problem with RET is not tied to auto-state but to
the autopair minor mode as reported also here:
http://code.google.com/p/autopair/issues/detail?id=8

So far, I've disabled autopair, since autocomplete is much more
important for my workflow.
