Hello. A long time ago, I received the following report from the Debian bug system.
I've just checked and it still happens in indent 2.2.13 (which I plan to upload for Debian unstable soon). Note: There are a few more indent bugs here, already forwarded, it would be wonderful if you could take a look at some of them before the next release: https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/pkgreport.cgi?src=indent Thanks. -------- Mensaje reenviado -------- Asunto: -sc -cdb misses that there are already asterisks in the comments Fecha: Tue, 02 Aug 2016 14:03:57 +0200 De: Wouter Verhelst <wou...@debian.org> Para: Debian Bug Tracking System <sub...@bugs.debian.org> Package: indent Version: 2.2.11-4 Severity: normal Hi, input: int main(void) { /* Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur adipiscing elit.
