[TxMt] Bracket indenting

Hi,

is it correct that curly brackets feature a special behaviour in Textmate? I mean the fact that if I enter a Curly bracket { and hit enter, it will create a newline after the tab. This is not the case with other brackets:

So with curly brackets I get:

{
	Cursor
}

With other brackets I get:

(
	Cursor)

Note that this is _not_ set in the indentation rules section, to my understanding. I want to mimic the behaviour of Curly brackets for other brackets as well. I know that I can use this trick used in the Snippet: "Special: Return Inside Empty Open/Close Tags" in the HTML bundle to mimic this behaviour, which I am happy to do. I just wanted to know whether I get this correctly, that the special behaviour of curly brackets is unique and built into Textmate.

Thanks a lot,

Stephan
