hi everyone, quick question, some weeks ago the Cider REPL started behaving a bit differently

pressing TAB now on an empty line actually indents the REPL

I'm quite sure it didn't use to do that

is that something that was done on purpose or maybe a known bug/feature?

Sorry

@andrea.crotti I've seen this as well and I have no explanation

good that I'm not the only one @dpsutton I can file an issue on github

since it looks like a bug to me

not sure what we can do though

(defun cider-repl-indent-and-complete-symbol ()
      "Indent the current line and perform symbol completion.
    First indent the line.  If indenting doesn't move point, complete
    the symbol."
      (interactive)
      (let ((pos (point)))
        (lisp-indent-line)
        (when (= pos (point))
          (if (save-excursion (re-search-backward "[^() \n\t\r]+\\=" nil t))
              (completion-at-point)))))

the lisp-indent-line is out of our hands

this is a strange one. i wonder why it has changed recently

well it must be something that changed in Cider right?

at least I assumed so, but to be fair I'm keeping Emacs updated as well, now on GNU Emacs 26.0.50 (build 2, x86_64-pc-linux-gnu, GTK+ Version 3.18.9) of 2017-05-17

all of the code connected to pressing tab has existed since 2013 it seems

Indeed.

Likely a change in Emacs.

mm well for me the change seemed way more recent than that @dpsutton

i agree

what emacs are you running? you mentioned 25.2

i'm building from source so i'm 26.x

no 26.0.50 as pasted above

ah same here

but on 26 from some time ago it wasn't like that

tip of emacs is a little wonky then

ok good to know I'll see if I can find something about that
