    You know the world is going crazy when the best rapper is a white guy, the best golfer is a black guy, the tallest guy in the NBA is Chinese, the Swiss hold the America's Cup, France is accusing the U.S. of arrogance, Germany doesn't want to go to war, and the three most powerful men in America are named "Bush", "Dick", and "Colon."

        You seem to be missing the point. Are you a programmer? How much time do you spend "beautifying with your eyes" tens of thousands of lines of legacy code?

        Why would you even wanto to beautify legacy code? It's legacy code. Leave it be, or rewrite it. I don't beautify code. Code does not have to be beautifull. It has to work, and has to be readable. Make up and earrings will not make your code better. It will just distract you, and fool you into thinking it's perfect, untill it opens "it's" mouth and all that comes out is crap. Focus on better code, make it readable, add comments when needed. And structure it in the way you think it makes it easier to read and follow the logic behind it, but do it yourself and don't rely on tools. Who knows, maybe you'll catch a bug or two, or even identify flaws in the logic side.

          Yeah - in another work environment I'd insist on that - here it's all too hard! We get some devs just manually going through code changing the bracketing to their preference. I suggested automating the build process on check in and was met with such negativity I've pretty much given up suggesting any improvements in process. Sorry - feeling particularly cynical today!

          Well, it depends really. Tools like never really work in every case. It really depends on case to case. Sometimes it's nice to have it separated, makes it more readable. Sometimes you have some inline stuff, thaat if you separated in the same way would just confuse you.

            You don't know what a code beautifier is or what it does, do you? That's fine, of course. Moving on...

              Yes I do. Which is why I say that you should not rely on those. When you don't have a code beautifier on hand, and not even able to get one, what are you gonna do?

                  Crying when people don't agree with you won't win you any points.

                    It sounded like you were saying that there's something wrong with him using a program to format his code instead of doing it himself manually. Is that the humor you say he is missing?

                    The difficult we do right away... ...the impossible takes slightly longer.

                    I didn't say there was anything wrong with using a program to format reams of legacy code. He never mentioned legacy code so I attempted a somewhat amusing response, albeit you can use your brain to decide how to format your own code.

                      What disagreement? You are delusional. I am just looking for a tool and two fools are going on on tangents no one gives a crap about.
