AutoHotkey Community

; What it does:
; It takes a AHK script and changes the indentation and case of commands according to syntax.
;
; Known limitations:
; - a space is required after the last ":" for hotkeys, hotstrings and subroutine
; - comments might not have the right indentation in certain strongly
; encapsulated block-structures, due to not knowing what the next line will bring.
; - case correction only works for words longer than 4 characters,
; (except: (in all cases) If, Loop, Else
; (optional) Goto, Gui, Run, Exit, Send, Sort, Menu
; Parse, Read, Mouse, SendAndMouse, Default, Permit, Screen, Relative
; Pixel, Toggle, UseErrorLevel, AlwaysOn, AlwaysOff
; !!! caution !!! case correction is dangerous, since WinTitles in commands are case sensitive
;
; - after doing indentation in an editor the cursor jumps
; to the first position in the last line
; - Indentation might fail, if a "{" is the last character of a Loop or If statement that
; doesn't support OTB. E.g. "If x = {" or "Loop, Parse, Var, {"
;
; Functionality:
; - Gui: For drag&drop of files, setting of options and feedback
; - command line option "/in" for file and "/log" for log file
; - command line option "/hidden" to start script with hidden GUI
; - command line option "/watch hwnd" to start script with hidden GUI, closes itself when hwnd closes
; - command line option "/toggle" checks if another instance is running and closes both scripts
; - command line option "/hidden" to start script without GUI
; - Options:
; - custom hotkey for indenation
; - custom file extension (overwrites old file if nothing is specified)
; - custom indentation (one tab or a number of spaces)
; - different indentation styles (Rajat, Toralf or BoBo)
; - indentation of continuation lines (a number of tabs or spaces)
; - indentation preservation of block continuation lines (round brackets) On/Off
; - indentation preservation of block comments (/* ... */) On/Off
; - case correction for syntax words with more than 4 characters (thanks Rajat)
; - statistics for script (lines of code, comments, total and empty an time needed)
; - Dropped Files: Contents will be indented and copied to a new file with a user
; defined extension (overwrites old file if nothing is specified).
; - Hotkey (F2): Highlighted syntax in an editor will be indented, if nothing is
; highlighted all text will be indented. (thanks ChrisM)
; - Gui remembers last position and settings between sessions (thanks Rajat)
; - The case of subroutine calls and function calls is adjusted to the case
; of their respective definitions
; - Ctrl-d toggles debug mode
; - 12% faster then version 7 (due to shortened loop cycles) but 90 lines longer

; Suggestions are appreciated

- this is just a guess, but maybe toralf prefers a compact GUI that matches his style of coding...

- you loose the "extension for files" functionnality

I don't like the read-only edit fields for file path

- There is a regression on the placement of the edit box indicating the number of Tabs or Spaces to be used in continuation lines. With the style you used, we would believe it is a multiplier for spaces only. I was confused in the old version of Auto-Syntax-Tidy and toralf was kind enough to change that.

In both cases, I am not fan of the "Rajat vs. Toralf" style names... Those unfamiliar with these eminent members of our community would be confused, and "See the website for more details" isn't satisfying...

Please advice names for the two different styles.

test both and you'll see the difference.
