Has anyone written a Visual Studio macro to automatically match style guide indentation rules?

[Chris Bentzel]

google-c-style.el is extremely helpful for auto-correcting indentation issues. 

I'm wondering if someone's done similar work for VS (specifically VS2008). http://dev.chromium.org/developers/how-tos/visualstudio-tricks lists a few tricks, but even with these Visual Studio still auto-indents in a non-compliant style. I'm fairly new to VS so it's possible this just can't be done.

Would be a neat trick if you can do it; early on we had a few macros which some of us used, but nothing on that scale.  In general, the VS macro environment is pretty treacherous.  If you're both a voodoo witchdoctor and also a programmer, you might have good luck! :-)

I recommend you to use "block indent" instead of the default "smart indent". That's definitively a start.
