Howdy Ranchers!
Any suggestions/recommendations on good code beautification tools? I found a dozen of them just using Google search, but I would like to know if there are some that are more popular than others.
Thanks!

Often I use the customizable beautifier of the Together IDE.
Often I use the netbeans IDE beautifier too.
I customized to some extent Xemacs with its jde-mode, this is
often my maintool if I do not need 'extras' of other IDE's, because of the power of Xemacs ( query regular express replace and a lot of other goodies namely "everything" can be customized or build).

If you're using Forte, highlight and Control-Shift-F. There's loads of nice little touches like that in Forte (my favourite is probably Shift-Alt-I to generate import statements).
