hi,

One use case I have in all programming systems is to auto reformat a whole 
file buffer (let alone a whole directory tree of code). I tried doing that 
in emacs elm-mode but it seems that it doesn't quite know enough to do what 
I am hoping for. Is there any emacs mode for elm that knows what to do 
automagically?

I also just tried it in atom, with language-elm, and it doesn't seem to 
know either. Is there any good working editor system that can do it? Is 
there something about elm's BNF-or-whatever that prevents editors from 
being able to do it? (Does it support my long held believe that whitespace 
sensitive syntax being a bad idea when all concerns are weighed? :-)

(I did try to get set up with lighttable but that was sort of a miserable 
experience for me to date, so i haven't gotten to the point of trying auto 
reformat there.)

thank you!
