-that bad- That's why I looked for a tool like that months ago. Big project from someone else, do you feel like reformatting hundreds of files with hundreds (thousands?) of lines manually?

I do it all the time. In fact, I enjoy doing it (no I don't want to do it for anyone else). What I find interesting/entertaining is reducing the amount of code down to what's actually necessary and then reorganizing the code to make routines more optimum and generic. Most of the stuff I review is reduced considerably. In short, it's a great way for me to both learn and build my own library. When clients don't have me pounding keys for their service, I enjoy reviewing, rewriting code and creating demos. However, I would never use a Code beautifier because as I go through the code, the only code that get beautified is the code that I approve. When I see code formatted differently than mine, then I know it's suspect and I need to review it. Cheers, tedd -- ------- http://sperling.com http://ancientstones.com http://earthstones.com
