gnome-c-style ====== gnome-c-style is an Emacs minor mode for editing C source code in [GNOME C coding style](https://developer.gnome.org/programming-guidelines/stable/c-coding-style.html.en). In particular, it is useful to properly line-up [function arguments](https://developer.gnome.org/programming-guidelines/stable/c-coding-style.html.en#functions) and [function declarations in header files](https://developer.gnome.org/programming-guidelines/stable/c-coding-style.html.en#header-files). Install ------ * `M-x package-install gnome-c-style` * Add the following line to `~/.emacs.d/init.el`: ``` (add-hook 'c-mode-hook 'gnome-c-style-mode) ``` Usage ------ | Key | Command | --------------|-----------------------------------------------------------| | C-c C-g a | Align argument list at the current point | | C-c C-g r | Align function declarations in the current region | | C-c C-g C-g | Compute optimal alignment columns from the current region | | C-c C-g g | Guess alignment columns from the current region | | C-c C-g f | Set alignment column to the current point | | C-c C-g c | Insert `module_object` | | C-c C-g C | Insert `MODULE_OBJECT` | | C-c C-g C-c | Insert `ModuleObject` | | C-c C-g s | Insert custom snippet | Example ------ If you have the following code in a header file: ```c GGpgCtx *g_gpg_ctx_new (GError **error); typedef void (*GGpgProgressCallback) (gpointer user_data, const gchar *what, gint type, gint current, gint total); void g_gpg_ctx_set_progress_callback (GGpgCtx *ctx, GGpgProgressCallback callback, gpointer user_data, GDestroyNotify destroy_data); void g_gpg_ctx_add_signer (GGpgCtx *ctx, GGpgKey *key); guint g_gpg_ctx_get_n_signers (GGpgCtx *ctx); GGpgKey *g_gpg_ctx_get_signer (GGpgCtx *ctx, guint index); void g_gpg_ctx_clear_signers (GGpgCtx *ctx); ``` Mark the region, type `C-c C-g C-g`, and you will see the optimum alignment columns: ``` identifier-start: 9, arglist-start: 41, arglist-identifier-start: 64 ``` Then, mark the region again, type `C-c C-g r`, and you will get the code aligned: ```c GGpgCtx *g_gpg_ctx_new (GError **error); typedef void (*GGpgProgressCallback) (gpointer user_data, const gchar *what, gint type, gint current, gint total); void g_gpg_ctx_set_progress_callback (GGpgCtx *ctx, GGpgProgressCallback callback, gpointer user_data, GDestroyNotify destroy_data); void g_gpg_ctx_add_signer (GGpgCtx *ctx, GGpgKey *key); guint g_gpg_ctx_get_n_signers (GGpgCtx *ctx); GGpgKey *g_gpg_ctx_get_signer (GGpgCtx *ctx, guint index); void g_gpg_ctx_clear_signers (GGpgCtx *ctx); ``` Note that the `typedef` statement is skipped as it is not a function declaration.
