VBScript Formatter

The VBScript Formatter is a domain-specific tool that reformats VBScript code to a consistent style while preserving behavior. It analyzes token sequences, identifies language blocks (Sub/Function, If/End If, loops), and reconstructs the source with stable indentation and spacing rules. Conceptually, it acts as a code normalizer: input remains semantically identical, but its structure becomes easier to read and maintain. Beneficiaries include developers maintaining WSH scripts, ASP Classic pages, and admin automation tasks, especially those merging contributions from multiple teams. Unique value lies in VBScript-aware handling of blocks and line continuations, token-safe preservation of comments and string literals, and profiles that enforce project-wide standards. Core features include indentation normalization, line-wrapping with the VBScript continuation character, configurable tab/space usage, and enforcement of blank-line conventions. Use cases span refactoring, code reviews, and onboarding, where consistent style accelerates comprehension and reduces review cycles. The tool purposefully remains non-destructive and does not perform semantic analysis or code fixes; it focuses on formatting only, ensuring the original logic and behavior are intact. Advanced scenarios support per-project formatting profiles, enabling a team to apply the same rules across multiple VBScript repositories. Outputs can be exported back to editors or CI systems for integration into development pipelines.
