+ 1: static char* ingredients[] =
+ 2: @{
+ 3: "Ham",
+ 4: "Salt",
+ 5: NULL
+ 6: @};
+@end example
+
+@ssindex brace-list-open
+@ssindex brace-list-intro
+@ssindex brace-list-close
+@ssindex brace-list-entry
+Following convention, line 2 in this example is assigned
+@code{brace-list-open} syntax, and line 3 is assigned
+@code{brace-list-intro} syntax. Likewise, line 6 is assigned
+@code{brace-list-close} syntax. Lines 4 and 5 however, are assigned
+@code{brace-list-entry} syntax, as would all subsequent lines in this
+initializer list.
+
+@ssindex brace-entry-open
+Your static initializer might be initializing nested structures, for
+example:
+
+@example
+ 1: struct intpairs[] =
+ 2: @{
+ 3: @{ 1, 2 @},
+ 4: @{
+ 5: 3,
+ 6: 4
+ 7: @}
+ 8: @{ 1,
+ 9: 2 @},
+10: @{ 3, 4 @}
+11: @};
+@end example
+
+Here, you've already seen the analysis of lines 1, 2, 3, and 11. On
+line 4, things get interesting; this line is assigned
+@code{brace-entry-open} syntactic symbol because it's a bracelist entry
+line that starts with an open brace. Lines 5 and 6 (and line 9) are
+pretty standard, and line 7 is a @code{brace-list-close} as you'd
+expect. Once again, line 8 is assigned as @code{brace-entry-open} as is
+line 10.

+A number of syntactic symbols are associated with parenthesis lists,
+a.k.a argument lists, as found in function declarations and function
+calls. This example illustrates these:
+
+@example

+14: );
+15:
+16: a_longer_function( line1,
+17: line2 );
+18: @}
+@end example
+
+@ssindex arglist-intro
+@ssindex arglist-close
+Lines 5 and 12 are assigned @code{arglist-intro} syntax since they are
+the first line following the open parenthesis, and lines 7 and 14 are
+assigned @code{arglist-close} syntax since they contain the parenthesis
+that closes the argument list.
+
+@ssindex arglist-cont-nonempty
+@ssindex arglist-cont
+Lines that continue argument lists can be assigned one of two syntactic
+symbols. For example, Lines 2 and 17
+are assigned @code{arglist-cont-nonempty} syntax. What this means
+is that they continue an argument list, but that the line containing the
+parenthesis that opens the list is @emph{not empty} following the open
+parenthesis. Contrast this against lines 6 and 13 which are assigned
+@code{arglist-cont} syntax. This is because the parenthesis that opens
+their argument lists is the last character on that line.
+
+Syntactic elements with @code{arglist-intro},
+@code{arglist-cont-nonempty}, and @code{arglist-close} contain two
+buffer positions: the anchor position (the beginning of the
+declaration or statement) and the position of the open parenthesis.
+The latter position can be used in a line-up function (@pxref{Line-Up
+Functions}).
+
+Note that there is no @code{arglist-open} syntax. This is because any
+parenthesis that opens an argument list, appearing on a separate line,
+is assigned the @code{statement-cont} syntax instead.

+@ssindex comment-intro
+Line 4 is assigned both @code{defun-block-intro} @emph{and}

+Line 5 is assigned @code{c} syntax.
+
+@item
+@cindex syntactic whitespace
+Line 6 which, even though it contains nothing but whitespace, is
+assigned @code{defun-block-intro}. Note that the appearance of the

+@item
+@ssindex cpp-macro
+Lines 12 and 14 are assigned @code{cpp-macro} syntax in addition to the

+configured to cancel out the normal syntactic context to make all
+preprocessor directives stick to the first column, but that's easily
+changed if you want preprocessor directives to be indented like the rest
+of the code. Like @code{comment-intro}, a syntactic element with

+Multiline preprocessor macro definitions are normally handled just like
+other code, i.e. the lines inside them are indented according to the
+syntactic analysis of the preceding lines inside the macro. The first
+line inside a macro definition (i.e. the line after the starting line of
+the cpp directive itself) gets @code{cpp-define-intro}. In this example:

+
+@noindent
+line 1 is given the syntactic symbol @code{cpp-macro}. The first line
+of a cpp directive is always given that symbol. Line 2 is given
+@code{cpp-define-intro}, so that you can give the macro body as a whole
+some extra indentation. Lines 3 through 5 are then analyzed as normal
+code, i.e. @code{substatement} on lines 3 and 4, and @code{else-clause}
+on line 5.
+
+The syntactic analysis inside macros can be turned off with
+@code{c-syntactic-indentation-in-macros} (@pxref{Custom Macros}). In
+that case, lines 2 through 5 would all be given @code{cpp-macro-cont}

+@subsection Statement Block Symbols
+@comment !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+
+There are a few occasions where a statement block might be used inside
+an expression. One is in C or C++ code using the gcc extension for
+this, e.g:
+
+@example
+ 1: int res = (@{
+ 2: int y = foo (); int z;
+ 3: if (y > 0) z = y; else z = - y;
+ 4: z;
+ 5: @});
+@end example
+
+@ssindex inexpr-statement
+Lines 2 and 5 get the @code{inexpr-statement} syntax, besides the
+symbols they'd get in a normal block. Therefore, the indentation put on
+@code{inexpr-statement} is added to the normal statement block
+indentation. An @code{inexpr-statement} syntactic element doesn't
+contain an anchor position.
+
+In Pike code, there are a few other situations where blocks occur inside
+statements, as illustrated here:
+
+@example
+ 1: array itgob()
+ 2: @{
+ 3: string s = map (backtrace()[-2][3..],
+ 4: lambda
+ 5: (mixed arg)
+ 6: @{
+ 7: return sprintf ("%t", arg);
+ 8: @}) * ", " + "\n";
+ 9: return catch @{
+10: write (s + "\n");
+11: @};
+12: @}
+@end example
+
+@ssindex inlambda
+@ssindex lambda-intro-cont
+Lines 4 through 8 contain a lambda function, which @ccmode{} recognizes
+by the @code{lambda} keyword. If the function argument list is put
+on a line of its own, as in line 5, it gets the @code{lambda-intro-cont}
+syntax. The function body is handled as an inline method body, with the
+addition of the @code{inlambda} syntactic symbol. This means that line
+6 gets @code{inlambda} and @code{inline-open}, and line 8 gets
+@code{inline-close}@footnote{You might wonder why it doesn't get
+@code{inlambda} too. It's because the closing brace is relative to the
+opening brace, which stands on its own line in this example. If the
+opening brace was hanging on the previous line, then the closing brace
+would get the @code{inlambda} syntax too to be indented correctly.}.
+
+@ssindex inexpr-statement
+On line 9, @code{catch} is a special function taking a statement block
+as its argument. The block is handled as an in-expression statement
+with the @code{inexpr-statement} syntax, just like the gcc extended C
+example above. The other similar special function, @code{gauge}, is
+handled like this too.

+@section Indentation Calculation
+@cindex indentation
+@comment !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
+
+Indentation for a line is calculated from the syntactic context
+(@pxref{Syntactic Analysis}).
+
+First, a buffer position is found whose column will be the base for the
+indentation calculation. It's the anchor position in the first
+syntactic element that provides one that is used. If no syntactic
+element has an anchor position then column zero is used.
+
+Second, the syntactic symbols in each syntactic element are looked up
+in the @code{c-offsets-alist} style variable
+(@pxref{c-offsets-alist}), which is an association list of syntactic
+symbols and the offsets to apply for those symbols. These offsets are
+added together with the base column to produce the new indentation
+column.
+
+Let's use our two code examples above to see how this works. Here is
+our first example again:
+
+@example
+ 1: void swap( int& a, int& b )
+ 2: @{
+ 3: int tmp = a;
+ 4: a = b;
+ 5: b = tmp;
+ 6: @}
+@end example
+
+Let's say point is on line 3 and we hit the @key{TAB} key to reindent
+the line. The syntactic context for that line is:
+
+@example
+((defun-block-intro 29))
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+Since buffer position 29 is the first and only anchor position in the
+list, @ccmode{} goes there and asks for the current column. This brace
+is in column zero, so @ccmode{} uses @samp{0} as the base column.
+
+Next, @ccmode{} looks up @code{defun-block-intro} in the
+@code{c-offsets-alist} style variable. Let's say it finds the value
+@samp{4}; it adds this to the base column @samp{0}, yielding a running
+total indentation of 4 spaces.
+
+Since there is only one syntactic element on the list for this line,
+indentation calculation is complete, and the total indentation for the
+line is 4 spaces.
+
+Here's another example:
+
+@example
+ 1: int add( int val, int incr, int doit )
+ 2: @{
+ 3: if( doit )
+ 4: @{
+ 5: return( val + incr );
+ 6: @}
+ 7: return( val );
+ 8: @}
+@end example
+
+If we were to hit @kbd{TAB} on line 4 in the above example, the same
+basic process is performed, despite the differences in the syntactic
+context. The context for this line is:
+
+@example
+((substatement-open 46))
+@end example
+
+Here, @ccmode{} goes to buffer position 46, which is the @samp{i} in
+@code{if} on line 3. This character is in the fourth column on that
+line so the base column is @samp{4}. Then @ccmode{} looks up the
+@code{substatement-open} symbol in @code{c-offsets-alist}. Let's say it
+finds the value @samp{4}. It's added with the base column and yields an
+indentation for the line of 8 spaces.
+
+Simple, huh?
+
+Actually, it's a bit more complicated than that since the entries on
+@code{c-offsets-alist} can be much more than plain offsets.
+@xref{c-offsets-alist}, for the full story.
+
+Anyway, the mode usually just does The Right Thing without you having to
+think about it in this much detail. But when customizing indentation,
+it's helpful to understand the general indentation model being used.
+
+As you configure @ccmode{}, you might want to set the variable
+@code{c-echo-syntactic-information-p} to non-@code{nil} so that the
+syntactic context and calculated offset always is echoed in the
+minibuffer when you hit @kbd{TAB}.

+
+The principal variable for customizing indentation is the style
+variable @code{c-offsets-alist}, which gives an @dfn{offset} (an
+indentation rule) for each syntactic symbol. Its structure and
+semantics are completely described in @ref{c-offsets-alist}. The
+various ways you can set the variable, including the use of the
+@ccmode{} style system, are described in @ref{Config Basics} and its
+sections, in particular @ref{Style Variables}.
+
+The simplest and most used kind of ``offset'' setting in
+@code{c-offsets-alist} is in terms of multiples of
+@code{c-basic-offset}:
+
+@defopt c-basic-offset
+@vindex basic-offset (c-)
+This style variable holds the basic offset between indentation levels.
+It's factory default is 4, but all the built-in styles set it
+themselves, to some value between 2 (for @code{gnu} style) and 8 (for
+@code{bsd}, @code{linux}, and @code{python} styles).
+@end defopt
+
+The most flexible ``offset'' setting you can make in
+@code{c-offsets-alist} is a line-up function (or even a list of them),
+either one supplied by @ccmode{} (@pxref{Line-Up Functions}) or one
+you write yourself (@pxref{Custom Line-Up}).
+
+Finally, in @ref{Other Indentation} you'll find the tool of last
+resort: a hook which is called after a line has been indented. You
+can install functions here to make ad-hoc adjustments to any line's
+indentation.

+
+This section explains the structure and semantics of the style
+variable @code{c-offset-alist}, the principal variable for configuring
+indentation. Details of how to set it up, and its relationship to
+@ccmode{}'s style system are given in @ref{Style Variables}.
+
+@defopt c-offsets-alist
+@vindex offsets-alist (c-)
+This is an alist which associates an offset with each syntactic
+symbol. This @dfn{offset} is a rule specifying how to indent a line
+whose syntactic context matches the symbol. @xref{Syntactic
+Analysis}.
+
+Note that the buffer-local binding of this alist in a @ccmode{} buffer
+contains an entry for @emph{every} syntactic symbol. Its global
+binding and its settings within style specifications usually contain
+only a few entries. @xref{Style Variables}.
+
+The offset specification associated with any particular syntactic
+symbol can be an integer, a variable name, a vector, a function or
+lambda expression, a list, or one of the following special symbols:
+@code{+}, @code{-}, @code{++}, @code{--}, @code{*}, or @code{/}. The
+meanings of these values are described in detail below.
+
+Here is an example fragment of a @code{c-offsets-alist}, showing some
+of these kinds of offsets:
+
+@example
+((statement . 0)
+ (substatement . +)
+ (cpp-macro . [0])
+ (topmost-intro-cont . c-lineup-topmost-intro-cont)
+ (statement-block-intro . (add c-lineup-whitesmith-in-block
+ c-indent-multi-line-block))
+ @dots{}
+@*)
+@end example
+@end defopt
+
+@deffn Command c-set-offset (@kbd{C-c C-o})
+@findex set-offset (c-)
+@kindex C-c C-o
+This command changes the entry for a syntactic symbol in the current
+binding of @code{c-offsets-alist}, or it inserts a new entry if there
+isn't already one for that syntactic symbol.
+
+You can use @code{c-set-offsets} interactively within a @ccmode{}
+buffer to make experimental changes to your indentation settings.
+@kbd{C-c C-o} prompts you for the syntactic symbol to change
+(defaulting to that of the current line) and the new offset
+(defaulting to the current offset).
+
+@code{c-set-offsets} takes two arguments when used programmatically:
+@var{symbol}, the syntactic element symbol to change and @var{offset},
+the new offset for that syntactic element. You can call the command
+in your @file{.emacs} to change the global binding of
+@code{c-offsets-alist} (@pxref{Style Variables}); you can use it in a
+hook function to make changes from the current style. @ccmode{}
+itself uses this function when initializing styles.
+@end deffn
+
+@cindex offset specification
+The ``offset specifications'' in @code{c-offsets-alist} can be any of
+the following:
+
+@table @asis
+@item An integer
+The integer specifies a relative offset. All relative
+offsets@footnote{The syntactic context @code{@w{((defun-block-intro
+2724) (comment-intro))}} would likely have two relative offsets.} will
+be added together and used to calculate the indentation relative to an
+anchor position earlier in the buffer. @xref{Indentation
+Calculation}, for details. Most of the time, it's probably better to
+use one of the special symbols like @code{+} than an integer (apart
+from zero).
+
+@item One of the symbols @code{+}, @code{-}, @code{++}, @code{--}, @code{*}, or @code{/}
+These special symbols describe a relative offset in multiples of
+@code{c-basic-offset}:
+
+By defining a style's indentation in terms of @code{c-basic-offset},
+you can change the amount of whitespace given to an indentation level
+while maintaining the same basic shape of your code. Here are the
+values that the special symbols correspond to:
+
+@table @code
+@item +
+@code{c-basic-offset} times 1
+@item -

+
+@item A vector
+The first element of the vector, an integer, sets the absolute
+indentation column. This will override any previously calculated
+indentation, but won't override relative indentation calculated from
+syntactic elements later on in the syntactic context of the line being
+indented. @xref{Indentation Calculation}. Any elements in the vector
+beyond the first will be ignored.
+
+@item A function or lambda expression
+The function will be called and its return value will in turn be
+evaluated as an offset specification. Functions are useful when more
+context than just the syntactic symbol is needed to get the desired
+indentation. @xref{Line-Up Functions}, and @ref{Custom Line-Up}, for
+details about them.
+
+@item A symbol with a variable binding
+If the symbol also has a function binding, the function takes
+precedence over the variable. Otherwise the value of the variable is
+used. It must be an integer (which is used as relative offset) or a
+vector (an absolute offset).
+
+@item A list
+The offset can also be a list containing several offset
+specifications; these are evaluated recursively and combined. A list
+is typically only useful when some of the offsets are line-up
+functions. A common strategy is calling a sequence of functions in
+turn until one of them recognizes that it is appropriate for the
+source line and returns a non-@code{nil} value.
+
+@code{nil} values are always ignored when the offsets are combined.
+The first element of the list specifies the method of combining the
+non-@code{nil} offsets from the remaining elements:
+
+@table @code
+@item first
+Use the first offset that doesn't evaluate to @code{nil}. Subsequent
+elements of the list don't get evaluated.
+@item min
+Use the minimum of all the offsets. All must be either relative or
+absolute - they can't be mixed.
+@item max
+Use the maximum of all the offsets. All must be either relative or
+absolute - they can't be mixed.
+@item add
+Add all the evaluated offsets together. Exactly one of them may be
+absolute, in which case the result is absolute. Any relative offsets
+that preceded the absolute one in the list will be ignored in that case.
+@end table
+
+As a compatibility measure, if the first element is none of the above
+then it too will be taken as an offset specification and the whole list
+will be combined according to the method @code{first}.
+@end table
+
+@vindex c-strict-syntax-p
+@vindex strict-syntax-p (c-)
+If an offset specification evaluates to @code{nil}, then a relative
+offset of 0 (zero) is used@footnote{There is however a variable
+@code{c-strict-syntax-p} that when set to non-@code{nil} will cause an
+error to be signaled in that case. It's now considered obsolete since
+it doesn't work well with some of the alignment functions that return
+@code{nil} instead of zero. You should therefore leave
+@code{c-strict-syntax-p} set to @code{nil}.}.

+
+As an example of how to customize indentation, let's change the
+style of this example@footnote{In this and subsequent examples, the
+original code is formatted using the @samp{gnu} style unless otherwise
+indicated. @xref{Styles}.}:
+
+@example
+@group
+ 1: int add( int val, int incr, int doit )
+ 2: @{
+ 3: if( doit )
+ 4: @{
+ 5: return( val + incr );
+ 6: @}
+ 7: return( val );
+ 8: @}
+@end group
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+to:
+
+@example
+@group
+ 1: int add( int val, int incr, int doit )
+ 2: @{
+ 3: if( doit )
+ 4: @{
+ 5: return( val + incr );
+ 6: @}
+ 7: return( val );
+ 8: @}
+@end group
+@end example
+
+In other words, we want to change the indentation of braces that open a
+block following a condition so that the braces line up under the
+conditional, instead of being indented. Notice that the construct we
+want to change starts on line 4. To change the indentation of a line,
+we need to see which syntactic symbols affect the offset calculations
+for that line. Hitting @kbd{C-c C-s} on line 4 yields:
+
+@example
+((substatement-open 44))
+@end example
+
+@noindent
+so we know that to change the offset of the open brace, we need to
+change the indentation for the @code{substatement-open} syntactic
+symbol.
+
+To do this interactively, just hit @kbd{C-c C-o}. This prompts
+you for the syntactic symbol to change, providing a reasonable default.
+In this case, the default is @code{substatement-open}, which is just the
+syntactic symbol we want to change!
+
+After you hit return, @ccmode{} will then prompt you for the new
+offset value, with the old value as the default. The default in this
+case is @samp{+}, but we want no extra indentation so enter
+@samp{0} and @kbd{RET}. This will associate the offset 0 with the
+syntactic symbol @code{substatement-open}.
+
+To check your changes quickly, just hit @kbd{C-c C-q}
+(@code{c-indent-defun}) to reindent the entire function. The example
+should now look like:
+
+@example
+@group
+ 1: int add( int val, int incr, int doit )
+ 2: @{
+ 3: if( doit )
+ 4: @{
+ 5: return( val + incr );
+ 6: @}
+ 7: return( val );
+ 8: @}
+@end group
+@end example
+
+Notice how just changing the open brace offset on line 4 is all we
+needed to do. Since the other affected lines are indented relative to
+line 4, they are automatically indented the way you'd expect. For more
+complicated examples, this might not always work. The general approach
+to take is to always start adjusting offsets for lines higher up in the
+file, then reindent and see if any following lines need further
+adjustments.
+
+@c Move this bit to "Styles" (2005/10/7)
+@deffn Command c-set-offset symbol offset
+@findex set-offset (c-)
+@kindex C-c C-o
+This is the command bound to @kbd{C-c C-o}. It provides a convenient
+way to set offsets on @code{c-offsets-alist} both interactively (see
+the example above) and from your mode hook.
+
+It takes two arguments when used programmatically: @var{symbol} is the
+syntactic element symbol to change and @var{offset} is the new offset
+for that syntactic element.

+@cindex line-up function
+@cindex indentation function
+Often there are cases when a simple offset setting on a syntactic
+symbol isn't enough to get the desired indentation---for example, you
+might want to line up a closing parenthesis with the matching opening
+one rather than indenting relative to its ``anchor point''. @ccmode{}
+provides this flexibility with @dfn{line-up functions}.
+
+The way you associate a line-up function with a syntactic symbol is
+described in @ref{c-offsets-alist}. @ccmode{} comes with many
+predefined line-up functions for common situations. If none of these
+does what you want, you can write your own. @xref{Custom Line-Up}.
+Sometimes, it is easier to tweak the standard indentation by adding a
+function to @code{c-special-indent-hook} (@pxref{Other Indentation}).
+
+The line-up functions haven't been adapted for AWK buffers or tested
+with them. Some of them might work serendipitously. There shouldn't be
+any problems writing custom line-up functions for AWK mode.
+
+The calling convention for line-up functions is described fully in
+@ref{Custom Line-Up}. Roughly speaking, the return value is either an
+offset itself (such as @code{+} or @code{[0]}) or it's @code{nil},
+meaning ``this function is inappropriate in this case - try a
+different one''. @xref{c-offsets-alist}.
+
+The subsections below describe all the standard line-up functions,
+categorized by the sort of token the lining-up centers around. For
+each of these functions there is a ``works with'' list that indicates
+which syntactic symbols the function is intended to be used with.
