  Perl::Tidy is your friend! :)

  I don't manually format any code any more.

    And you can make it do this, how?

      Well Perl::Tidy turns this:

      my $blodrfrf= $c->model('Fdsfkjsdlfkajd')->find({ id => $id, otehrs => $sdfkjsd });

      into this:

      my $blodrfrf= $c->model('Fdsfkjsdlfkajd')
              ->find({ id => $id, otehrs => $sdfkjsd });

      instead of:

      my $blodrfrf= $c->model('Fdsfkjsdlfkajd')->find({
          id => $id,
          otehrs => $sdfkjsd,
      });

      I'd appreciate any config hints you have, I just started and am currently trying to set it up to match our current c

      I normally hit Command-Shift-H :P

      My .perltidyrc doesn't cuddle the ( and {, } and ) but I think I recall an option that covers that.

      Here's what that code looks like for me:

      my $link = API::Link->new(
          {
              rel  => 'meta:version',
              href => $uri->as_string,
              type => 'application/xml'
          }
      );
• cperl-mode has some functions for this (Score:1)

  cperl-mode handles most of this, but its implementation is sort of broken.  I guess I will be fixing that sometime soon.
  
  One nit on your elisp code... the style like this:
  
  <code>
  (foo
    (bar
      baz
    )
  )
  </code>
  
  Looks really weird.  All the close parens should be on the same line:
  
  <code>
  (foo
    (bar
      baz))
  </code>
  
  This is the "official" emacs lisp standard, and I think most other Lisps like the same sort of formatting.
