In article <169 at comp.lancs.ac.uk> craig at comp.lancs.ac.uk (Craig Wylie) quotes:

I use programs like "cb" and "indent" to get my C programs
indented according to what they *REALLY* mean, as opposed to
what I intended them to mean (indicated by MY indenting).  This
can be quite illuminating....
