28.3.4 Commands for C IndentationHere are special features for indentation in C mode and related modes:
Reindent the current top-level function definition or aggregate type declaration (c-indent-defun
in CC mode, c-ts-mode-indent-defun
in c-ts-mode
based on tree-sitter).
Reindent each line in the balanced expression (see Expressions with Balanced Parentheses), also known as “sexp”, that follows point. In CC mode, this invokes c-indent-exp
; in tree-sitter based c-ts-mode
this invokes a more general prog-indent-sexp
. A prefix argument inhibits warning messages about invalid syntax.
Reindent the current line, active region, or block starting on this line (c-indent-line-or-region
). With prefix argument, rigidly reindent the balanced expression which starts on the current line, if the current line needs reindentation.
If c-tab-always-indent
is t
, this command always reindents the current line and does nothing else. This is the default.
If that variable is nil
, this command reindents the current line only if point is at the left margin or in the line’s indentation; otherwise, it inserts a tab (or the equivalent number of spaces, if indent-tabs-mode
is nil
).
Any other value (not nil
or t
) means always reindent the line, and also insert a tab if within a comment or a string.
To reindent the whole current buffer, type C-x h C-M-\. This first selects the whole buffer as the region, then reindents that region.
To reindent the current block, use C-M-u C-M-q. This moves to the front of the block and then reindents it all.
