Hi Noam, I ended up here as I also noticed a big difference in emacs-lisp indentation. Your patch fixes the multi-line string indentation. Thanks! But indentation is still broken in cases like these: (with-eval-after-load 'foo (setq bar `( baz))) It instead indents to: (with-eval-after-load 'foo (setq bar `( baz))) The "b" in "baz" is lining up with "'" in "'foo". Reverting lisp-mode.el to that in commit 66dc8dd66dc8dd fixes the problem. -- Kaushal Modi
