But it seems to me that works on Global basis strictly.
How can we localize the cleanup within a visual block?
Moreoever how can we customize the indentation, bracing, etc?
Since with Perl this customization is captured within .perltidyrc.
perltidy is an external program. Find an appropriate one for C ("indent"
maybe) or for whatever language you're using, and you can use = or
!filter in Visual mode; or leave 'equalprg' empty and you can use = with
internal-to-Vim formatting functions as defined (for c) by 'cindent'
'cinkeys' 'cinwords' and 'cinoptions' or (in general) by ":filetype
indent on", $VIMRUNTIME/indent/<fileype>.vim and whatever the latter
sets, such as (for instance) 'indentexpr'.
See
