It's driving me nuts. The editor keeps trying to be smart and inserting

option that will make it stop. It should NOT be so hard to make the
text editor behave like a TEXT EDITOR, so where is it?

Actually, there is a way to fix it. You just didn't allow enough time for a
response.
go to: Window>Preferences>C/C++>Code Templates
Adjust the templates to your coding style.
viola! you are done!
BTW, if you'd worked through the tutorials then you would have known about
it already.

I apologize, I just created a new template called 'braces'. It looks like
this;
{
${cursor}
}
.... well with proper indents, of course (there's a lot to be said for stupid
editors with monotype fonts). It didn't work. The damned thing always gives
you an extra indent after an open brace and doesn't complete the closing
brace. Yes, it bothers me too, just not as much.
This could either be a bug or a feature. 90% of the time, when entering an
open brace, you want the indent on the next line, depending on your coding
style.
I don't know what to tell you now. I'm so used to editors doing that to me
that I just hit the backspace to unindent, when required. It's definitely
stopped irritating me decades ago. Every "smart" editor I know of does this,
all the way back to 'brief'. Personally, I think that it's better than no
indent.
Short answer: I can't find it either. If it's not already written up then it
may be worth a mention in bugzilla. You found it ... have at it.

Personally, I'd like it if there was some way to disable all "smart" editing features. I am a fast typist, and all I want is an editor that inserts everything I type, exactly as I type it, and nothing more or less. Is that too much to ask of an editor?
How about, when you decide to do something "smart" for me, you give me the option of disabling it just in case I don't think it's so smart?
A very knowledgable person once said "Anything that can be done FOR you automatically can be done TO you automatically".
