In text-mode M-a does backward-sentence. (moves to the first character
of the current sentence) In C-mode these same key strokes move to the
begining of the function instead of to the begin of the sentance?
I am trying to write a macro to correct a problem with the code
produced in c-mode. currently my c-mode produce code like
foo()
{
if (foo)
{
this is wrong;
}
}
what I want is
foo()
{
if (foo)
{
this is correct;
}
}
what I want my macro to do is go to the begining of the current
sentence and delete the extra tabs/spaces. what would be even better
is this macro could correct all the formating errors for the current
buffer.
Any ideas?
thanks in advance Andy
P.s. I am using gnuemacs 18.55 on a sun workstation sunos 4.1
