# This file contains a class and a main program that perform three
# related (though complimentary) formatting operations on Python
# programs. When called as "pindent -c", it takes a valid Python
# program as input and outputs a version augmented with block-closing
# comments. When called as "pindent -d", it assumes its input is a
# Python program with block-closing comments and outputs a commentless
# version. When called as "pindent -r" it assumes its input is a
# Python program with block-closing comments but with its indentation
# messed up, and outputs a properly indented version.
# A "block-closing comment" is a comment of the form '# end <keyword>'
# where <keyword> is the keyword that opened the block. If the
# opening keyword is 'def' or 'class', the function or class name may
# be repeated in the block-closing comment as well. Here is an
# example of a program fully augmented with block-closing comments:
# def foobar(a, b):
# if a == b:
# a = a+1
# elif a < b:
# b = b-1
# if b > a: a = a-1
# # end if
# else:
# print 'oops!'
# # end if
# # end def foobar
# Note that only the last part of an if...elif...else... block needs a
# block-closing comment; the same is true for other compound
# statements (e.g. try...except). Also note that "short-form" blocks
# like the second 'if' in the example must be closed as well;
# otherwise the 'else' in the example would be ambiguous (remember
# that indentation is not significant when interpreting block-closing
# comments).
# The operations are idempotent (i.e. applied to their own output
# they yield an identical result). Running first "pindent -c" and
# then "pindent -r" on a valid Python program produces a program that
# is semantically identical to the input (though its indentation may
# be different). Running "pindent -e" on that output produces a
# program that only differs from the original in indentation.
# Other options:
# -s stepsize: set the indentation step size (default 8)
# -t tabsize : set the number of spaces a tab character is worth (default 8)
# -e : expand TABs into spaces
# file ... : input file(s) (default standard input)
# The results always go to standard output
# Caveats:
# - comments ending in a backslash will be mistaken for continued lines
# - continuations using backslash are always left unchanged
# - continuations inside parentheses are not extra indented by -r
# but must be indented for -c to work correctly (this breaks
# idempotency!)
# - continued lines inside triple-quoted strings are totally garbled
# Secret feature:
# - On input, a block may also be closed with an "end statement" --
# this is a block-closing comment without the '#' sign.
# Possible improvements:
# - check syntax based on transitions in 'next' table
# - better error reporting
# - better error recovery
# - check identifier after class/def
# The following wishes need a more complete tokenization of the source:
# - Don't get fooled by comments ending in backslash
# - reindent continuation lines indicated by backslash
# - handle continuation lines inside parentheses/braces/brackets
# - handle triple quoted strings spanning lines
# - realign comments
# - optionally do much more thorough reformatting, a la C indent
