Code Formatter supports 14 languages out of the box: batchfile, C#, CSS, HTML, INI file, Java, JScript, Perl, PHP, Python, SQL, VB.NET, VB Script and XML.

    Great little formatter.

    See my blog entry for some of the issues I found with it.

    I think the fixes should be fairly simple now that you know how to use the control.

    I have tried to use word as a formatter but it doesn’t generate correct styles for most blogs. This control looks like it does a much better job.
