to Peter:
I think our replace-regex doesn't work well.
1) Supposing a code line is "if(s!=0)", it will be changed into "if(s! = 0)". That's definitely not the thing we want. The same problem occurs for "if (s==0)".
2) A line of "strcpy(str, "a=2")", will be changed into "strcpy(str, "a = 2").

So we should spend more effort to solve those problems.

To David:
Indent is quite a useful utility. Thanks very much for your suggestion!
There are still something that doesn't look good for me.
Such as, script1 will be changed to srcipt2.
script1

void test(char* str)
{
 int i;
i=    2;
 
strcpy(str,        "hello");
}

script2
void
test( char* str )
{
 int i;
 i = 2;

 strcpy(str, "hello");
}


But what I want is script3.
script3:
void test( char* str )
{
 int i;
 i = 2;
 strcpy(str, "hello");
}

I'am sorry to bother you guys. I just curious how skilled programmers indent their codes, to make them look nice. They may have written tons of codes, not only C/C++, but also java, python, whatever.

Tried this?  It has tons of options.
