Repeat ... Until is indented correctly. However, Repeat...Forever does not indent correctly.

Example (wrong) indentation:

Repeat
    ' Content here
    Forever

Should look like this:

Repeat
    ' Content here
Forever

TODO

• Add test case for Repeat...Forever indentation
• Update blitzmax-mode-until-regexp with Forever syntax

Single-line if/then statements normally indent correctly, but they fail when nested inside another block:

If something Then
    ' Indented correctly
    If False Then Continue
    ' Also indented correctly
    Else
    End If

Both the Else and End If should be indented level with the first If, not the second (inline) one.

BlitzMax doesn't use escape sequences in strings. For example, a quote character is inserted as ~q rather than \".

Backslash characters should be treated like any other character in a string. Currently they're treated as an escape character:

Print "I end in a backslash\"
' This will be font-locked as a string, rather than a comment

Almost certainly a regex issue.

Type MyType
    Method _someMethod()
    ' Indents to here. Should be correctly indented
End Method ' This fails too
End Type

Abstract functions should not increase indentation.

' Incorrect indentation
Type MyType
    Function doThis() Abstract
        Function doThat() Abstract
End Type

' Correct indentation
Type MyType
    Function doThis() Abstract
    Function doThat() Abstract
End Type

BlitzMax supports using a ; character as a newline. Automatic indentation does not take this into account, so single-line definitions mangle the indent level:

Function iAmEmpty() ; End Function
    Print "I should not be indented"

The second line should not be indented. This problem happens with all indented syntax: While, Repeat, For, Function, If, Select, Type and Method.

The TextMate bundle uses environment settings to compile projects, not just buffers. Thanks to .tm_properties files, these can be set per directory/project, which is nice. I think with the power of .dir-locals.el to auto-load when opening a buffer, one can do the same for Emacs.

My elisp isn't that good, that's why I didn't work on a PR right away and want to coordinate efforts first. What do you think?

The Extern and End Extern keywords do not currently indent their contents correctly. They also cause Function indentation to fail.

Example (wrong) indentation:

Extern
Function ExternalFunction()
    Function AnotherExternalFunction()
        End Extern

Should look like this:

Extern
    Function ExternalFunction()
    Function AnotherExternalFunction()
End Extern

TODO

• Add indentation for "Extern" / "End Extern" region
• Do not increase indent for external functions

The following code does not indent correctly:

If Self.entityHasItems(event.getEntity()) Then
	' Should be indented
EndIf

Changing getEntity to just tEnt still causes the issue, so it's probably a regex issue.

Example that fails:

Type MyType
    Function DoThis:SomeAbstractType()
    ' Indents to here. Should be indented properly
    End Function
End Type
