The issue is pretty simple. For multiline comments the formatter adds a new space between every line. This is not exactly what I would like but it would be ok except for one problem. The major problem is that it does this EVERY time I run the formatter, so that if I run the formatter 5 times, there will be five blank lines between every real line in a multiline comment. If you would fix this, I would be grateful. Thank you for making such a great editor free!
It's strange. The behavior we expect is to not indent at all the content of multiline comment. I just test the last 1.3M2 on my laptop(linux/debian) and it works for me. https://www.eclipse.org/ldt/ I also tested it on windows 7 64 bits and it's works for me too :/. Which version did you try ? Do you get the same problem with the 1.3M2 version ? Have you test it on another OS than windows 8 ?

Hello, first I'm sorry for the delayed response; I tried replying to the email, but that did not work I see. As to your comment, I only have windows 8.1 To be more clear, the problem is not that commented lines are indented, but rather that new lines are added. So this: --[[ hello this is a multiline comment ]] becomes --[[ hello this is a multiline comment ]] after one format command. If I run the formatter again it adds another line to each line, so the above becomes: --[[ hello this is a multiline comment ]] This problem does not exist if lines are commented out individually like this: --hello --this --is fine It's only with the --[[]] multiline comments. Thanks!
