freja-jandent

Alternative formatting for the freja editor using jandent.

Prerequisites

The freja editor.

Setup

0. Clone this repository somewhere and cd to the resulting directory
1. Start freja with: freja ./freja-jandent/defaults.janet
2. Control+L to load the file

Example Usage

1. In freja's buffer window, type some code that could use some formatting, e.g.:

   (defn my-fn
   [x]
   (+ x 1))
   

2. Enter the key sequence Control+Shift+F.

3. Observe the formatted code:

   (defn my-fn
     [x]
     (+ x 1))
   

Explanation

In this version, Control+Shift+F invokes the function jandent-format which formats the buffer content using jandent.

jandent acts a little differently than spork/fmt, in particular it tries NOT to:

• alter whitespace beyond the first non-whitespace character on a line
• put a closing delimiter in the left-most column
• change the number of lines in the file

Note that the built in key sequence for formatting using spork/fmt is overridden.
