Beautify PHP is a very useful tool that reformats any php source code.
Maybe someone here can use it in any way.

What it does:

This program tries to reformat and beautify PHP source code files automatically. The program is Open Source and distributed under the terms of GNU GPL. It is written in PHP and has a web frontend.

Who needs it:

* people, who get PHP code from other coders and are slightly confused
* people, who can't read their own PHP code anymore
* people, who want to share their PHP code

Basic features:

* automatic indentation of PHP source code according to given number of spaces
* automatic newlines, if required
* includes settings for braces according to C or PEAR style
* can make use of PHPs integrated code highlight option
* can limit number of chars per line. This will break the code at a space and outputs the rest on the next line with an additional indent. (I used this to reformat my code to put it in a LATEX document. This PHP code normally can't be executed anymore, it is only useful for printout.)
* turn off and on beautifying by inserting "// NO_BEAUTIFY" or "// BEAUTIFY" in source code

Thanks Astaran. I will give it a try. I always try to comply with PEAR standards but sometimes I do get it wrong...

Update: It works really nice although I would have liked it even more if it could scan folders and grab each php file in turn. However using it from the command line could do what I just described.

Really nice tool.
