Just a formatter for Game Maker-scripts

After years of waiting for someone else to make a simple formatter for Game Maker .gml-scripts that actually fits my workflow I just made by own simple formatter because for some reason YoYoGames does not want to make one that is part of the IDE even though all other IDE:s have one. (Just a disclaimer. I like YoYoGames and Game Maker is a cool engine)

Example messy ugly code:

After running formatter:

Voila!

How to use:

Just place the executable binary in the root of your project-folder and run it whenever. By default it will go through all your .gml files in the folder and sub-folders and format them nicely.  You can also specify the filepath in the program arguments if you want and it will then format the parameter supplied folder and its subfolders recursively.

Do note that on first run that might be a lot of changes depending on the size of your project and how messy your scripts are. When you need formatting again then just run the script again. It will not format files that are already formatted correctly.
