For those out there who think that coding is as much about nice looking code structure as functionality (I admit, I do like a nicely formatted chunk of code more than a sloppy layout), then maybe the phpCodeBeautifier is for you. Available in three different types - standalone GUI, command-line, and module for PHPEdit - this software takes the settings that you give it, and makes the code fit those standards.
For example, you give it a poorly arranged file, with various things differently formatted throughout. Then, feed it into the phpCodeBeautifier with options like "space after if" and "align equal statements" and you get a lovely chunk of reformatted code, ready to hit the streets and be distributed. It doesn't help your code execute faster, and it's not going to make it work any better, but - ya know, pretty code it just so much easier to work with.
Thanks to PHPEverywhere for the link.
