[9fans] C beautifier

[9fans] C beautifier

[Francisco J Ballesteros]

Hi,

anyone is using a C beautifier in Plan 9?
I mean, other than gnu indent, which I tried and does not
work quite right for me.

thanks

I'll have to learn to search and read man pages :)

thanks!

I have an indent port in my contrib (though you say you don't like it),
and plan9 has cb(1).

what don't you like about indent?

I use it with erik's bcmt which replaces c++ style comments with C ones,
a carfully tailored proto file, and this: sed 's/\) {/){/
.

This gives me pretty much plan9-style code (assuming nix-style is plan9-style
and has not evolved).

Somehow indent has indented wrong some ifs
(the code in the body is at the same tab level than the if).
Perhaps I made a mistake. I'm not saying it doesn't work
(I'm sorry if I did).

but cb was just fine.

I've had indent fail on something I thought would be easily parsable.
All I remember is it got indentation wrong from a certain point up to
the end of the file, and simply removing a newline before a brace
nullified the error.

Somewhere I have a script which fed about a dozen options to indent to
get the style I wanted. It was a very clear style (unlike indent's
default) but I can't find it now. I suspect it's on my Zaurus and was
primarily intended to fit code to the 63-column xterm I prefered on
that device.

cb has worked for me, even on windows code.

I was looking for something capable of unifying say

if(...){
}else{
}

and

if(...)
{
}
else
{
}

into a single style.
But it might do. thanks again.

As I said, I should learn to read man pages.
cb -s
was exactly what I was looking for.
thanks again.

uncrustify is fairly flexible, but takes some work up front to describe your desired output style.
