Although it's not freeware, like Jack Parker (jparker@hpbs3645.boi.hp.com) has so generously offered, Windstar offers a code beautifier for INFORMIX-4GL which may interest you. Currently, the format options (and their default values) include: Change Indentation? [Y] Change Keyword Case? [Y] Indentation Character [SPACE] Case of Keywords [UPPER] Space Increment [ 4] WindBeaut Header? [Y] Source File Width [ 80] Old Filename Extension [ .wb] WindBeaut starts at US$300 for an Informix C class machine (eg. 486 SCO UNIX) for an unlimited user license. With Windstar's Informix Worldwide User Conference '94 *40%* discount still in effect until September 2, 1994, you can purchase WindBeaut for only US$180 ... okay, so it's almost free |-) /----------------------------------------------------------------------------\\ | Judy Domshy || | | Windstar Corporation || "Life is like riding a bicycle. | | Phone : 1 905 479 6621 || You don't fall off unless you | | Fax : 1 905 479 6086 || stop pedaling."
