Feature request : autoindent

I doubt this would need to be a button. Actually I think it should work as your typing the code, though this scheme would be a bit difficult to implement.

The simplest solution to do this would be to automatically move the cursor the same number of spaces as used in the previous line. If you do it this way, then her button suggestion would work great to indent all the code based on opening and closing brackets. Her request would be much harder to implement, as not only would you have to look for opening and closing brackets, but you'd have to look for specific keywords and detect if they've been terminated on the same line.

For instance:

For(int a=0;a < 100;a++) Console.Write("Hello");

This would not cause the next line to indent because the for block is terminated, however these would:

For(int a=0;a < 100;a++)
Console.Write("Hello");

and:

For(int a=0;a < 100;a++){
Console.Write("Hello");
}

Do you see the problem here? It's quite frankly a coding nightmare. Not saying it can't be done, but it would be rather difficult. If you were to attack this suggestion, I'd advise simply starting with bracket based indention, then add support for keywords, one keyword at a time. Then after all the keywords have been added, add code to check for keyword termination.

You'll obviously need to use a Stack to track what indents have been opened, this way you can add one to the stack when an indent is added, and remove one from the stack when an indent is removed.

We will probably implement this in the future as it's quite a common feature in IDEs
