This is great stuff :-)

Are you going to contribute it to the EPFL plugin?

Well, the intention long term is to rewrite Scalariform to use a
different approach (to work with Scalac ASTs directly, as opposed to a
custom parser), so it may be worth waiting until then. Miles would be
very welcome to incorporate it into SDT as it stands, though. There's
a patch to do so here:

I'd prefer to see a formatter based on scalac's ASTs but, depending on
how the timing works out, it might still be a good idea to include
Scalariform as is ... that's something Matt and I will be talking
about at Scala Days :-)

Cheers,

Miles

Whatever is decided on, please enable source formatting as a Save Action.

Oh yes ... you can be sure I'll be doing that.
