C isn't Lisp; we shouldn't have to use the same conventions about aligning parentheses. My preference is to indent continuation lines by two tab stops. In config.c I modified this practice because the continuation lines were very long and were indented very far; instead I sometimes indented them by four spaces. But in no case does it seem reasonable to align continuation lines with opening parens. Alan Stern
