@subsubsection Customizing Indentation
If you are using a mode whose indentation is provided by SMIE, you can
customize the indentation to suit your preferences. You can do this
on a per-mode basis (using the option @code{smie-config}), or a
per-file basis (using the function @code{smie-config-local} in a
file-local variable specification).
@defopt smie-config
This option lets you customize indentation on a per-mode basis.
It is an alist with elements of the form @code{(@var{mode} . @var{rules})}.
For the precise form of rules, see the variable's documentation; but
you may find it easier to use the command @code{smie-config-guess}.
@end defopt
@deffn Command smie-config-guess
This command tries to work out appropriate settings to produce
your preferred style of indentation. Simply call the command while
visiting a file that is indented with your style.
@end deffn
@deffn Command smie-config-save
Call this command after using @code{smie-config-guess}, to save your
settings for future sessions.
@end deffn
@deffn Command smie-config-show-indent &optional move
This command displays the rules that are used to indent the current
line.
@end deffn
@deffn Command smie-config-set-indent
This command adds a local rule to adjust the indentation of the current line.
@end deffn
@defun smie-config-local rules
This function adds @var{rules} as indentation rules for the current buffer.
These add to any mode-specific rules defined by the @code{smie-config} option.
To specify custom indentation rules for a specific file, add an entry
to the file's local variables of the form:
@code{eval: (smie-config-local '(@var{rules}))}.
