Log Message:
indent: don't claim that indent is "the nicest C pretty printer around"
That statement may have been true in 1993, but definitely is not true
anymore, as of 2021.
The part about "needs to be completely redone" is still true though
since indent cannot even format its own source code in an acceptable
way.
