Feature Request: Beautifier from Command-Line / Standalone Beautifier

[nic]

Hi,

we really like and extensively use the beautifier from PL/SQL Developer. Would it be possible to extend the Command-Line interface so that one could use the CLI to beautify a certain file?

Kind regards,
Nico

In the Command Window you can use the BEAUTIFY command for batch scrip processing. For example:

beautify c:\scripts\employee.spc
beautify c:\scripts\employee.bdy

Note that the original file or object is modified.

If you have a script with all beautify commands, you can call it from the command-line as follows:

plsqldev.exe userid=scott/tiger@chicago commandfile=c:\temp\beautify.script

You can end the command script with an "EXIT APPLICATION" command to exit PL/SQL Developer afterwards.
