Yesterday I was thinking of committing a recently written
reindentor :) Not a full blown formatter (like my tool 'DST'
was trying to be, written 17 years ago), but it can change
indentation (including continued lines), it assumes a properly
and consistently indented source, autodetects it and can
change this to any number of chars or tabs.

Adding dir: svn add <dir>
then see doc/howtosvn.txt how to add files and svn props in particular.
Do you think we can make the default setup to produce
std Harbour .prg formatting? If it goes to utils, I think
this would be nice and expected.
Brgds,
