True, but that's why I mainly write in Scheme :-)  
You might not like the syntax, but it is relatively easy to make the
editor "do the right thing" wrt indentation.

   The alternatives are either to write some humongous GNUemacs-type
   functions to do it, or write a small, neat external tool which
   handles the job and is re-usable anywhere. I prefer the latter, but
   respect those who can tolerate the former.

The actual code to do the indentation is not large, though I'll grant
you that GNU Emacs is rather large for an editor, but then I don't
think of it as an editor.  As to being re-usable, I do use the code
to indent Scheme, I just invoke Emacs from a script.
