Auto Align

Dear C++ Community,
Is there a way to auto align a cpp file?

I assume you mean something like this:

@Little Bobby Tables...I like the link your referring me to. I am using 64 bit but 32 works on 64, I just am a little confused how to set it up. I'm using windows btw.

Quick start:
$ ./configure
$ make

The executable is src/uncrustify.
Copy that to your ~/bin/ folder or wherever you want.

Ok so what should I do I've dLd uncrustify-0.60-win32\uncrustify-0.60-win32, but didn't know what to do then I just dLd http://git-scm.com/download/win not sure what that is.

Can you please walk me through the steps, it seems like a cool application.

[Little Bobby Tables]

uhhh sure. the quick start is for linux. theres probably an install exe for windows. ill see if i can find it real quick

try this: http://sourceforge.net/projects/uncrustify/files/uncrustify/uncrustify-0.60/uncrustify-0.60-win32.zip/download?use_mirror=autoselect

ah yes I definitely see that it is for linux. I will get more into linux in the summer. But what does this do exactly...make your code align and style it the way you want it including color changes?

[Little Bobby Tables]

yes to all except the last one. the color is whatever the editor/ide your using wants to show it as

Ok thanks. Maybe when I get a tutor he can help me with setting up the align thing and getting the color I want or what not.
