I am trying to use "indent" program to indent C++ programs. But it does not seem to work fine. It is messing up the indentation much more.
It is a Class file. Can you please suggest the right options for it or another program that works?
Thanks

1 The indent Program. The indent program can be used to make code easier to read. It can also convert from one style of writing C to another. indent understands a substantial amount about the syntax of C, but it also attempts to cope with incomplete and misformed syntax.
You (these are the default settings I believe) can select a block of code and press the Tab key. This will indent the entire block. So for indenting a whole file: Ctrl + A , then Tab .
No. The emitted binary doesn't change based on what spacing you use in your program. The amount of space the source file takes up does change though. spaces and tabs are each one character, so using 1 tab vs 4 spaces takes up different amounts of memory.
I want to indent a specific section of code in Visual Studio Code: Select the lines you want to indent, and. use Ctrl + ] to indent them.
Try Artistic Style:
Artistic Style is a source code indenter, formatter, and beautifier for the C, C++, C# and Java programming languages.

in visual studio, CTRL+a, CTRL+k, CTRL+f will auto-indent the entire file you're working in.

Another tool for automated formatting of C++ code is clang-format.

Many editors like Vim and Emacs have a feature that reindents code according to its built-in indentation standard.
In Vim, you can type = with any motion. (Like =% at any block delimiter or S-v to select a region and then = to reformat.) The gq command can be used to reformat comments and other text.
In Emacs, you can type M-x indent-region after selecting a region. (Such as with M-< and M->.) You can also reformat comments with M-x fill-paragraph.
