Or cb, beautify, or whatever.  Indent 1.9.1 works
wonderfully (and is easy to port to DJGPP - the main
area lacking is support for backslash in filenames,
otherwise it works fine) for C source, but it really
makes a mess of C++ (splitting :: into two tokens,
sometimes indenting it as a label and other times not, 
and generally getting confused).

This isn't a fault of indent, it's not designed for C++.

My question is, with all the C++ programmers here,
does anyone know of source or DOS binaries for the
same thing for C++?  Or do I have to roll my own?

(I really love te way with DJGPP I can just grab the Unix 
source and compile for DOS.  Well, almost - tcsh is
rather 'interesting' to port, but things like fork aren't
easily mapped to DOS...)

If anyone wants, I'll put up my DOS version of Indent 
1.9.1 when I've given it a good testing.  And mkdepend
(that needs a bit more work)...

Happy Easter to all, or whatever your celebration is...
