Tools to reformat existing code

[john_c]

Are there any tools to consistenly reformat existing AHK code?

I mean, something like ClangFormat. The only such tool for AHK I hear about is Toralf's "Auto-Syntax-Tidy".

However, the links to it's reworked version (by Sergejzr) are not available (I'm not surprised, it was 2015). See the last two posts here:

https://autohotkey.com/board/topic/7169 ... v12/page-6

So, does anybody have the most recent version of this script or probably someone knows another tool for this task?

(Please, note: I'm not asking about something like "quick suggestons" in some editors. I need to reformat existing code, instead of writing new).

My converter has some abilities to tidy code, I plan to release a much easier to use version, but it could be some weeks/months. [I.e. it can simply tidy up an AHK v1 script.]

And I have this for DllCall lines:

@jeeswg Very interesting, thanks. I also found your post in this thread:

As I understand, Toralf's formatter requires some "syntax files" and you found them and fixed them according to modern versions of AHK?

However, when I tried to use them together with Toralf's script it doesn't work.

Is it correct that there is no easy way to make Toralf's script to work?

I haven't tested toralf's script. I had hoped that providing the updated versions of the syntax files might help anyone interested to update the script themselves.
