There is an ada-reformat-batch.el file now supplied as part of the new emacs ada-mode (2.21 and up, I believe; the latest is 2.23). This program will (obviously) reformat a whole group of files. As a style comment: Reformatting lots of (presumably already working) Ada code is a time waster. If you want to get a uniform appearance, just reformat the specs. The less you touch stable code, the higher the reliability (ideal being touch count = 0 :-). -- Visit the Ada 95 Booch Components Homepage: www.ocsystems.com/booch This is not your father's Ada -- lglwww.epfl.ch/Ada
