    (*

    *)
  2. new_blanks_before : bool;
    (*

    Then ignore blanks with the new blank function (before parsing)?

    *)
  3. new_blanks_after : bool;
    (*

    Use the new blank function one last time before resuming old layout?

    *)
  4. old_blanks_after : bool;
    (*

    Use then the old blank function one last time as well?

    *)
}
val default_layout_config : layout_config
