Introduction

This egg contains a simple filter program to indent Scheme source code.

scheme-indent takes Scheme code from standard input and writes a properly indented version to standard output. A number of options allow to control the behaviour with respect to certain criteria, as follows:

-t: do not convert tabs to spaces
-p: separate closing parens by space
-T NUM: set tab-width to NUM (default is 8)
-I SYMBOL NUM: set indentation for list starting with SYMBOL
-N COLUMN: start with indentation at COLUMN (0-based)
-l: restart indentation on non-whitespace at first column
-n: ignore ".dir-locals.el" and ".editorconfig" files

Tabs are converted to 8 spaces by default. Whitespace is only modified at line-start, between ' (quote) / ` (quasiquote) and an opening parenthesis.

If a file with the name .editorconfig exists in the current directory, settings for tab_width and indent_style will be respected unless the -n option is given.

If a file with the name .dir-locals.el exists in the current directory, settings for tab-width and indent-tabs-mode are respected unless the -n option is given.

If .editorconfig exists .dir-locals.el is not loaded.

Command line-options can also be given by setting the environment variable SCHEME_INDENT. User options override options provided via environment variable. Settings from configuration files override any other settings given.

Note that scheme-indent is not a pretty-printer - newlines are never added or removed, only leading whitespace is modified. Nor is is it a linter, incorrect Scheme code is not detected and indentation will just proceed, regardless of syntactic errors like unmatched parantheses.
