a newline after a '{' will add the right indent newline furthermore if close brace is enabled in the preference it will insert the correct '}' after the line content. 

	if (isTrue) {<enter>i++;

will result in 

	if (isTrue) {
		<cursor>i++;
	}

you can set preferences for auto closing ( Parentheses, [ Brackets, " and ' Strings.

and to not annoy you with stuff. i added some smarts.

  • it will only close the pair if there is not already a match
  • you can set a preference to delete neighboring pairs whenever you delete the left part. e.g. it is very handy if you type [ instead of a { by accident and naturally cover it up with a backspace.
  • for strings you can keep your habit to double type the hyphen it will simple override the match.

smart comment new line auto edit is not yet implemented.

however this is definitely something i will cover in the next screencast.
