syntax aware formatting for programing languages

[Andrew Davidson]

I am looking for the equivalent of the Markup|Utilities|Format... tool for programming languages. I use that tool for cleaning up indentation and spacing on HTML files, but would like the same sort of utility for C++ (specifically, but wondering about other languages as well).

Does such a thing exist in BBEdit, or are there any tricks for this?

Thanks.

I use Artistic Style aka astyle although I haven't tried to integrate it with BBEdit...

I'd love to see clang-format integration :-)

(and YouCompleteMe as well, but that's a lot more work...)

Hey Craig,

It was easy enough to download from SourceForge and `make`.

It's available from Macports, so it's almost certainly available from Homebrew as well.

Basic usage in BBEdit is simple.  Run as a text-filter:

#! /usr/bin/env bash

astyle

Add options to your heart's desire.
