NAME

       FBB::Indent - Configurable text indentation

SYNOPSIS

       #include <bobcat/indent>

DESCRIPTION

       FBB::Indent  and  its  various  manipulators  offer  text-indentation.  Text inserted into
       streams is indented over a fully configurable amount  using  a  set  of  manipulators  and
       (static) member functions.

NAMESPACE

       FBB
       All  constructors,  members,  operators  and manipulators, mentioned in this man-page, are
       defined in the namespace FBB.

STATIC MEMBER FUNCTIONS

       o      void clear():
              Resets the indentation level to zero. The indent manipulator will have  no  visible
              effect after calling this member.

       o      void dec():
              Reduces  the  indentation  level  by  the  current  increment  (4  by default). The
              indentation level is never reduces to a negative value.

       o      void inc():
              Increments the indentation level by the current increment (4 by default).

       o      void setInc(size_t inc):
              Defines the increment value used with the dec and inc members.

       o      void setWidth(size_t width):
              Defines the indentation to a specific value width.

MANIPULATORS

       The following manipulators (which are not part of the FBB::Indent, class, but are  defined
       in the FBB namespace) can be inserted into the FBB::Indent object:

       o      FBB::decindent:
              This  manipulator  will  first  call  Indent::dec.  Then FBB::indent is called. The
              effect will be that the indentation level is reduced just before the indentation is
              inserted.

       o      FBB::incindent:
              This  manipulator  will  first  call  Indent::inc.  Then FBB::indent is called. The
              effect  will  be  that  the  indentation  level  is  incremented  just  before  the
              indentation is inserted.

       o      FBB::indent:
              This  manipulator  will  insert  the currently defined number of indentation blanks
              into the ostream for which it it called.

       o      FBB::indentdec:
              This manipulator will first call  FBB::indent,  Then  Indent::dec  is  called.  The
              effect  will  be  that the indentation is inserted first, immediately followed by a
              reduction of the indentation level.

       o      FBB::indentinc:
              This manipulator will first call  FBB::indent,  Then  Indent::inc  is  called.  The
              effect  will  be  that the indentation is inserted first, immediately followed by a
              increment of the indentation level.

       o      FBB::nlindent:
              This manipulator will insert a newline character (\n). Then FBB::indent is  called,
              indenting the next line over the currently defined number of blanks.

EXAMPLE

           using namespace std;
           using namespace FBB;
           int main()
           {
               cout << indentinc << "Not indented" <<
                       nlindent << "Indenting with 4 blanks\n";
               Indent::clear();
               cout << "No indentation\n";
           }
