Note: latexindent.exe was created using

  pp -o latexindent.exe latexindent.pl

using the Par::Packer perl module.

You'll need

    latexindent.pl
    defaultSettings.yaml

in the same directory. Windows users might prefer to grab latexindent.exe

A nice way to test the script is to navigate to the success directory, and then run the command:

    find -name "*.tex"|while read file; do arara "$file";done

or, without arara (note that this uses localSettings.yaml for every file)

    find . -type f \( -name "*.tex" -or -name "*.cls" \) | while read file; do echo $file; latexindent.pl -w -s -l "$file";done

This script may not work for your style of formatting; I highly recommend comparing the outputfile.tex to make sure that nothing has been changed (or removed) in a way that will damage your file.

I recommend using both of the following:

• a visual check, at the very least, make sure that each file has the same number of lines
• a check using latexdiff inputfile.tex outputfile.tex
