A number of people had mailed me asking for information on whether a C++
beautifier exist. The only information that I have received on this topic is
from ngo%tammy@das.harvard.edu:


Muru, I use the following two things to accomplish two separate
functions:

    1. Beautify code as I write it, making proper indentations, etc.
       I use c++-mode in GNU emacs.  If you don't use GNU emacs to
       edit your C++ programs, you could still write (or get someone
       to write) a quickie in emacs lisp that would invoke c++-mode on
       a program, format it, and write it, all in batch mode.

    2. Beautify code for printing.  I use C++2LaTeX.
