Sure. OpenMP is mostly compiler directives that you include in your
sequential code. A simple Hello world code looks like this

#include <iostream>

#include <omp.h>


using namespace std;


int main()

{

#pragma omp parallel

    {

        cout << "Hello world from thread # " << omp_get_thread_num() << endl;

    }

    return 0;

}


And so what I need is to indent #pragma directive to the proceeding code
block level. There could also be nested parallel constructs as well which
hurts the code readability a little bit.
