RE: [docbook-apps] Conditionally remove indent on FO programlistings?

["Darren Richmond" <darren at eldergrove dot com>]

That is a silly mistake I made. I'm using an editor that automatically
aligns element contents - which are of course translated into spaces
preserved by the programlisting element. Forcing the text back to the left
margin of the editor fixes the problem.

Thanks for your patience.

Well, in my PDFs generated with the 1.60.1 stylesheets,
a programlisting is not indented relative to the
paragraphs above and below.  My output with
your example looks like this:

some text
.., as seen in the code below:

//The white space before the word "System" below is what I want to modify
System.out.println("Hello, World!");

more text ...


I don't understand where your indent is coming from.
Are there leading spaces or tabs in the programlisting
itself?
