Auto format document with Notepad++
TextFX has the options to insert line breaks and tabbing:
Download the "NppAutoIndent" plugin. In Notepad++:
Plugins → Plugin manager → Available → NppAutoIndent
The "NppAutoIndent" plugin has 'smart' indentation for C-style languages, such as C/C++, PHP, and Java. It's the first release, so don't expect it to be flawless, and of course it might not be completely to your preferences. There is NO support for HTML/XML and such, maybe later, tag matching is much more difficult to implement. To use it, select your code and:
TextFX → TextFX Edit → Reindent C++ code
If you cannot see TextFX
in your menu, you can install its plugin
from SourceForge.
