also, if anyone knows of anything that will work with C, tcl and python, please pass along too! (does not have to be the same script/program)
thanks, doug

i've got a perl script with quite a bit of code. i had to add a few more 'if/else' statements, and instead of manually tabbing everything over (puts ease on my eyes), i was wondering if there was a program and/or script that anyone knows of that might automagically do this for me (scan through the code and tab it according to its structure)? i've seen programs that format HTML quite efficiently (html tidy, i think it was called), but i haven't really looked for anything else.
astyle is my tool of choice (astyle.sourceforge.net).
Choose between K&R and ANSI standards via commandline switches. I think you can even define your own formatting schemes. It works well for C/C++ and Java, and probably works fine for Perl, so long as you don't have a lot of heredoc strings (<<<__EOT__), but I've not tried it with tcl or python.
Looks like there's a perltidy that was once packaged for debian.
