I've been using Crimson Editor for a few years now, but since development on that as totally come to a halt, I decided to look for a new text-editor. Anyway, I found Notepad++ and I must say I really like it, it supports all the things CE did, and _way_ more. There's only one little problem..
CE automatically indents your code after an opening curly brace (The "{"). However, Notepad++ doesn't do that, and I can't find an option that turns this on (the auto-indent option kinda works, but I have to manually tab a line first). Is this possible at all? It would really help me a lot, because I'm so used to it.
Thanks in advance,
Patriot (Tim)

Yeah I'd love auto indent on curly braces too. You can hardly call it an "auto indent" feature when it doesn't change the indent on { or }.
Textpad does it best I think - when you hit Enter after typing an opening brace {, the next line is indented one more than the previous. And if you type a closing brace on a new blank line, it automatically moves it back a tab. Very simple method which works perfectly.

I'd just like to chime in for this feature as well. I'm another Crimson Editor convert, but this one feature is the one I'm missing the most, and missing it LOTS!

The QuickText plugin stuff might be a weak workaround until this is implemented...
