After some playing around with this I have a question...
What do I do with the semicolon placeholder if I want a semicolon?
Is there a way to pass on it and just accept the semicolon? If I
move to the next placeholder it just sits there wrapped in its
placeholdery bits :-)
Also, if I don't like the syntax formatting of the items can I
modify this easily or do I have to change every single clipping
item? (I.e. remove all the extraneous spaces around parenthesis and
parameters.)
All great questions...
semicolon holder: go to it with your placeholder shortcut, and type a
semi-colon... It seems kind of stupid, but I wanted to give
developers an easy way to get to the end of the function and I tried
to make it something somewhat intuitive. If you don't want the semi-
colon, just hit delete when it's selected.
The formatting, unfortunately, is not so easy to change. It is based
on formatting I learned over the years that promotes the use of white
space to make code more legible. I know a lot of people might not
like it, though, so I'm open to suggestions. I considered making the
formatting an option when downloading the set: what kind of "style"
do you want? But then it just turned into so much more work, well, I
decided to make the source code available instead...
That said, we _do_ offer custom development services....
You might also try multi-file search and replace on the clipping set
using some fancy grep to remove the white space...
Hope that helps.
