Either use the raw indention, which is just the spaces computed between
the first token on a new line and the token before it, or use the indention
computed according to the transformer used, which is stored in the column
indention.
choose_indention(flattened_pd, use_raw_indention)
| flattened_pd | A nested parse table that was turned into a flat parse
table using |
|---|---|
| use_raw_indention | Boolean indicating whether or not the raw indention should be used. |
All indention information will be combined with the space information for
the first token on a new line.
If use_raw_indention is set, information in the column indention will
be discarded anyways. If it is not set, the first token on a new line will
"inherit" the indention of the whole line.
The column indention will be removed since all information necessary is
contained in the spacing information of the first token on a new line and
the position of the tokens will not be changed anymore at this stage.
