I'm a fan of "half-indentation", showing clearly as well the

With "else" I practically always do "end else begin" to make things more
clear. (Code templates are nice :) )
if x then begin
code
end else begin
if y then begin
code
end else begin
code
end;
end;
I always put begin,else,end on newlines. If they were not important they
would be omitted.
That is a strange argument... "important" => line of their own
Now before I take part in this hijacked thread (it was about
highlighting, not indent). IMHO the exact style ot intend is mostly a
matter of taste. Wahtever you grew up with (or are used too), seems most
readable.
Besides this, there is pro and contra for all the styles, and no
scientific correct choice.
But as for you saying, I couldn't resist a bit of a sarcastic answer.
To me each word (keyword, identifier, or else), each bracket, comma,
*semicolon*, assignment or other operator => they are all important. Yet
I don't put them all on individual lines....
