I can't seem to get emacs to format my c-code the 
way I want. I have tried the definable variables
in c-mode. I am still unable to get switch statements to
come out like I want.

switch (mumble) 
{
    case 1:
        some_code;
	more_code;
	break;
    case 2:
	another_line;
	break;  
    default:
	more_lines;
}

I want the indent level to be 4 and I want the code under 
each case to be indented 4 from the word case.

Is there an enhanced c-mode that will do this?
Please respond via. email if this has been asked a million
times before.

Thanks
