I've noticed that the default D mode for emacs wants to format things this way:









I can work around this by omitting the closing ")" for the inner function until
after I've typed the opening "{" but this is an annoying workaround.  Anyone
with more emacs experience than I have know how to get inner function bodies to
shift one tab width to the left?

Only other irritating thing is that emacs does weird things with comments and
multiline var declarations:




I think that's the default.  Obviously I'd kind of like to have the "y" lined up
under the "x."

The trouble is I barely know how the C-mode code works so it will take a
little while to get into it. The d-mode file is just a set of hooks that
the C-mode engine exposes and typically the syntactic constructs unique to
D don't have hooks so they end up formatting strangly.
