<snip/> I suppose that it is a dream, but does anybody know about a tool that would automatically apply say 4-space indentation and whitespace clean up? We could apply that to our whole cvs say once per month.
Jalopy?

Never used it, just Google'd it.
Looks interesting and worth a try. Now we need one for xml too.
There is also an Eclipse plugin. We use it since over a year (probably).
I'm +1 for making our source easier to read. Maybe we should also instate a policy that incoming patches from non-committers should either be submitted properly formatted, or we won't take it.
That would be nice for us. Unfortunately, we probably have to take whatever comes and fix it with clever tools before commit.
Be carful when doing precommit reformatting on the cvs server side (which is doable with CVS). This might give you conflict as soon as you commit your next changes to the same file or it requires you to immediately update your tree after such committs.
