 I experienced a similar problem when playing around with
 the tupple (tuples from preprocessor) library, since plain
 C preprocessor output (especially if generated with
 Boost.PREPROCESSOR) is a total mess.

 I hacked a *very* simple source code "beautifulizer"
 which fulfilled my needs (but nobody else's); hence,
 I'm also interested in a more sophistcated tool ...

 I don't know if Yahoogroups file section is still active;
 you might find an earlier version of it (look for "tupple")
 there; if not, let me know if anyone's interested ...
