I’m guessing you haven’t evaluated the namespace in question or something like that

Yes, but more worriesome is that there's something wrong with my project, since this works flawlessly on a fresh project created with lein figwheel new whatever.

But as for now, I'm grepping :(

How can I change ; indenting behavior to be similar to ;;? I never want to indent way over to the right when I have a ; comment on its own line.

is there a reason you want to defy the convention that ; is indented to the right and ;; stays at the left? I think this is a standard lisp convention

I can search through the code base tonight to find out how it does the indenting, although i'm not sure which mode will do this

ie, clojure mode, some base lisp mode, something to do with cider, etc

@dpsutton I personally don't intend to defy the convention, but at work I'm dealing with code written in different IDEs that don't necessarily support the same conventions.

ahh, yeah that's annoying

is it formatting other people's code and adding useless changes to the diffs?

basically, yeah.

Also I don't really get why this is the default behavior:

(defn f
                                        ; abc
  def)

> reasonable to assume that I meant to defy the convention

But weakens the convention 🙂

are you super against putting two ;; there?

I just can't imagine going against standard indentation with a lisp

If I were writing the code from scratch, I would indeed put ;; there 🙂

can you do a code cleanup commit?

far afield of your question now

but i work in C# at work

if there was code that didn't follow convention I would bring it inline with convention

variable names, private injected dependency named conventions, alignment, etc

but that's certainly not part of a solution to your question

I could, but people would continue to put commit incorrect formatting.

Also, what exactly is the "convention" for a single-semicolon comment on its own line? I still can't find that.

i'd also like to know how to format ; as ;;

https://www.gnu.org/software/emacs/manual/html_node/elisp/Comment-Tips.html

and this will come from conventions from back in the day, i would assume

https://github.com/bbatsov/clojure-style-guide#comments

if clojure-mode really followed the single-semicolon convention, shouldn't it re-indent inline comments too?

(form) ; inline comment

(form)                                  ; inline comment

currently doesn't do that

you are correct

is there a way to turn off semi-colon auto-indenting entirely? that would probably also solve my problem

i've been looking in clojure-mode

i see options to adjust macro indentations

> I don't think that you would want to do that. It would make your code indent differently from all other elisp code... Anyway, this is hardcoded into lisp-indent-line, so you would have to modify it (perhaps using defadvice). – Lindydancer Jan 7 '13 at 9:29

This may be emacs indenting, and it looks like the indentation is hardcoded into lisp-indent-line

ha we discovered the same thing at the same time

great minds....

well, my great mind was looking on stack overflow 🙂

you identified the code and modified it ....
