Indentation after pressing "return" key if keyword in line

[Ryan Kaskel]

This is simple to describe.

Type a line with a keyword that expects indention after in it:

def foo():
    pass

or

with_help = False
^
|------------------move cursor here and press return (enter)

Notice that the line indents.

[Ryan Kaskel (ryankaskel)]

Make sure to try the above at the top of the buffer.

It seems to stop after a few lines but I can't figure out why:

For example:

--------- top of buffer - press return when cursor is over "d" in "def foo" and watch it indent
|
def foo():
    pass

def bar():
    pass

If you press return when the cursor is on the "d" in "def bar", it doens't indent.

Hi Ryan,

don't see any indentation here.

M-x report-emacs-bug RET

?

Cheers

hmm.

if you type:

import foo

on the first line of a new Python file and then you press C-a and then C-j, it ends up like:

    import foo

on my screen. I will investigate further.

I've just updated by local branch and now I see the following behavior (recipe with emacs -q):

step 1 - type into buffer on the first line :

import sys

step 2 - move cursor to beginning of line

import sys
^
|-----------cursor here

step 3 - press enter or C-j (both bound to py-newline-and-indent)

output:

import sys
         ^
          |------ cursor now here

Can you replicate this?

Sorry the formatting above isn't correct and I can't edit the message.

The cursor ends up on the "r" in "import".
