reindent.py
===========

The unbiased, generator-powered rewrite.

Q: Why is it better than the one coming with Python right now?
--------------------------------------------------------------

A: because the `-i` option of the command line interface allows you to indent with tabs or 2 spaces or whatever you prefer.

Q: What else? And how?
----------------------

A:

```
usage: reindent.py [-hvdnb] [-i spaces] [file [file ...]]

Reindents each input file. If none is given, code is read from stdin and
written to stdout. In this mode, all options except -i are ignored.

positional arguments:
file files (and directories) to reindent

optional arguments:
-h, --help show this help message and exit
-i spaces, --indentation spaces
indentation level depth. “0” means 1 tab
(default: 4 spaces)
-v, --verbose print information during run. can be used 2 times
(default: no output)
-d, --dry-run discard reindented file contents
(default: overwrite files)
-n, --no-recurse only reindent directly passed files
(default: also indent all scripts in passed directories)
-b, --no-backup prevent backup from being created
(default: create backup)
```
