Out of curiosity, is anyone around here using a code beautifier for D sourcecode?

If so, what works and what doesnt?

Nah, I'm anal-retentive enough about my coding style that I rarely use code beautifiers.  I'll literally make up a phase of development where I run back over my source; fixing up spaces and removing empty lines.

You know the old saying: coding styles are like a$$holes... everyone's got one and nobody likes anyone else's. =P

But to answer your question, I suppose GNU indent would do the trick? I'm not sure how hard-wired it is for C/C++ code specifically... It might choke on /+ +/ comments.

I have an incomplete automatic indenter for D sources in DDT project.
It is located in DIndenter.java (in eclipseD repository).
I think it can be easily ported to D.

BTW, how do I install the newest DDT? Installing 0.2.2 is trivial, but the latest version isn't.

Did you tried "find & install" eclipse feature through DDT update site?

Also possible that the last version is broken.
I just have no time to work on DDT now.

Ok, I guess it didn't work since I tried to manually install those jar-packages from dsource. Now that I tried the "official" installer, it complains that the plugin requires a win32 operating system. Too bad I'm running Linux. Is it hard to port DDT to Linux? At least the good old EclipseD-plugin worked fine here.

Maybe win3 requirements have no sense, I dont know it since I dont use linux.
DDT interaction with dmd was written by Eugene Pelekhay.

I didnt write anything platform-specific.
