From the web page:
Artistic Style is a reindenter and reformatter of C++, C and Java source
code.
When indenting source code, we as programmers have a tendency to use both
spaces and tab characters to create the wanted indentation. Moreover, some
editors by default insert spaces instead of tabs when pressing the tab key,
and other editors (Emacs for example) have the ability to "pretty up" lines
by automatically setting up the white space before the code on the line,
possibly inserting spaces in a code that up to now used only tabs for
indentation.
Since the NUMBER of space characters showed on screen for each tab character
in the source code changes between editors (until the user sets up the
number to his liking...), one of the standard problems facing programmers
when moving from one source code editor to another is that code containing
both spaces and tabs that was up to now perfectly indented, suddenly becomes
a mess to look at when changing to another editor. Even if you as a
programmer take care to ONLY use spaces or tabs, looking at other peoples
source code can still be problematic.
To address this problem I have created Artistic Style - a series of filters,
written in C++, that automatically reindent & reformat C/C++/Java source
files. These can be used from a command line, or it can be incorporated as
classes in another C++ program.
