Hi.
I use a similar style to Jim and for mostly the same reasons.
The vast majority of my code I do in Visual Studio and some times I use the
auto indent functions which are in VS.
When I used to code with out a Braille display I didn't often bother with it
but as I use a Braille display all the time and our companies coding guidelines
dictate the indent style it makes my life so much easier.
The other thing that goes in hand with indentation is the vs short cut keys
right ctrl and the square brackets, '[' and ']'. This key stroke when performed
on a '{' or '}' jump up and down function blocks.
HTH.
Nick.

Hi,
I indent my code because I work with sighted people, and I like to see it in
Braille because it helps my mind chunk the logic of my programs. I indent two
or four spaces. I put the opening left brace on the same line with the control
statement or function. I double space between statement chunks and the right
braces that end functions. I use a special JAWS indentation scheme that plays
piano notes for indentation levels at 2 spaces for up to 8 indentation levels
just in case I need them. I don't so far use a program to clean up my indents.
Maybe I'd be more efficient if I did, but, as I said, I like to feel the
indentation on my Braille display and hear those notes.
It's probably my learning style, but I have a lot of trouble understanding code
when more than one variable is initialized on one line and when people put
their if, then, else statements on one line. I like to press a navigation key
and here one chunk of data.
Thanks.
Jim

Hi all:
I'm just wondering how you folks indent your code?
Do you use indentation at all?
I know that indentation is not required for C#, but sighted folks prefer it.
Currently I don't have any code to share between sighted and blind
programmers.
I've just started learning to program and I use C#.
I'm just curious and would like some pointers.
I'm just trying to develop a good habit of how my code should look like.
