Obviously.  ;-)

Here's how the final version ended up...

emacs -batch -eval '(find-file "~/test")' -eval '(c-mode)' -eval 
'(indent-region (point-min) (point-max) nil)' -eval '(save-buffer)' 
-eval '(kill-buffer (current-buffer))'

Where '~/test' is the file that will be wrapped in place, keeping all 
tokens on the line they started on.  Note the '(c-mode)' in case the 
file doesn't end in a c-program extension.  And note the third argument 
on indent-region, which I'm not entirely sure is necessary or not.  But 
it's working fine.

Thanks again for your help.
