Tool for indentation of 6502/6510 code

Hello!

I was thinking about smashing together a small perl script or something like that for automatic indentation of 6502/6510 asm code. I was thinking about having parameters such as tabsize to use (default 4 spaces), number of tabs to use (default 2 or 3 or so), and optional conversion of tab characters to spaces instead. That would be useful for me (and perhaps others) for pre-preparation of code to be put up at codebase64, since tabs are translated to something like 6 spaces or so, and people often mix tab chars and spaces, which produces quite messy results when posting the code on codebase.

But... Before doing this, I though I should just check if someone already wrote such a tool. No need to reinvent the...

Okay.. I wrote a relatively simple script for code indentation now. Among other things, it can be used with tools such as petcom (by Craig Bruce) to convert turbo assembler sources to indented ascii sources for use with cross assemblers or for display on codebase. I wrote some info on source conversion on the following Codebase page, and you'll find the indentation script there too if you want it:

Please take care when using the indentation script (do not overwrite your original source files) since I cannot guarantee that it doesn't fuck your sources up, slightly, or in worst case even a whole lot. :)

Please also give me bug reports...
