Perl code formatting

[KPKIND]

Hi All,

I am new to Perl and have put a small perl script together. Since I have not setup all the formatting options while writing the code, the if loops and their other conditions start at the start of the line which makes it difficult to read and understand.

So I am trying to use VIM to see if I can get it auto formatted so it can improve the readability by adjusting the brackets and indentation etc.

I remember doing this a few days ago by highlighting the text and using some command in vim, but now I am unable to recollect this.

Can someone help me with this cmd or let me know any other ways of formatting the code to make it more readable etc

Cheers
TIA

The easiest solution for you might be to use "perltidy".
