Marcel,

I think I have a solution for your issue:

<ISSUE>
I've got a problem with jde's if-template. F.e. I want to write

if (a == b) {

}

However, when I type `i' - `f' - <SPACE>, this here happens:

if ( [cursor]) {

}

As you can see, there's a space before the cursor. This space does not
appear because of one of these 3 conditional spaces but because of me
having typed the <space> key. What do I have to change in order to get
after typing `i' - `f' - <SPACE> this here:

if ([cursor]) {

}

that is there's no space before the cursor.
</ISSUE>

The solution is to set the 'no-self-insert property of the
tempo-template-* defuns.
These tempo-template defuns are created in
jde-gen-define-abbrev-template in jde-gen.el
Here is the hacked code:

(defun jde-gen-define-abbrev-template (abbrev template)
  "Defines a TEMPLATE that replaces ABBREV when you type ABBREV
in a JDE source buffer. TEMPLATE is a list of tempo template
elements. See `tempo-define-template' for information on
template elements. The resulting template is added to the
list bound to `jde-gen-abbrev-templates'. "
  (let ((template-name (concat "jde-gen-" abbrev)))
    (defalias (intern template-name)
      (tempo-define-template
       template-name
       template 
       abbrev 
       (format "JDE template for %s control flow abbreviation." abbrev)
       'jde-gen-abbrev-templates))
    (put (intern (concat "tempo-template-" template-name))
'no-self-insert t)))

I am sure the defun could be optimized and integrated into jde or
defadvised(?).

Paul, can you integrate this?
