LUAFORMATTER

luaformatter is a lua source code formatter written in Java by Neoe.

It use a handcrafted parser as little as 300 lines of Java code.

How to use

install java (JRE from java.com) if not installed
run.cmd (java -jar luaformatter.jar ), args:

-o  -- overwrite source
-e<ENCODING> -- use ENCODING
input-files-or-dirs

Files cause formatting error will be picked up automatically and save to .fmt-err.lua files.

Why

I have tried several lua formatters online but no one work good, so I wrote this really works thing.

What should a formatter be?

Result should still compiles.
A -format-> B -format(again)-> C, then B should be same with C.
Result should be beautiful to read.
