Ideally the dmd front end should be available as a library then dfmt should be a separate tool that uses the same front end library as dmd. But I know that we're not there yet.
Well, some of it is. If somebody wants to work on adding the necessary lexer/parser/etc features on the C++ side I'm happy to help get ddmd ready to be used for this.
It's always nice if a tool is built as a library with a with executable on top. This allows for other tools to be built using this library.
Agreed.
