Yes Steve, I looked at it about 1.5 years ago. Uncrustfy was more useable at the time, better documented and better supported. The developer was willing to add improvements as they were requested. Python does not need a beautifier. In fact, the indentation sets the logical blocks, not brackets. So all python programs will use similar presentation style. This is one of its strong personality traits. I don't remember if uncrustify handles straight C code. I know it handles C++ quite well, and I think Java.
