Good source code formatter for Summer '87 code

Like it or not, I've just become responsible for a POS application
written in Summer '87. I know I will need to eventually upgrade to
the latest version, but for now I'm just trying to get organized.
First order of business is to make the code a bit more readable. Can
anyone recommend a good source code formatter?

Scott,

xMate Project Manager includes a built-in configurable source code
formatter.

| Thanks for the replies guys. The two development environments look
promising but they're both a bit more than I was looking for right
now. I have a source editor and I figure I'll hold off on setting up
a real development environment for when I get a chance to start
converting off of Summer '87.
Steve, I have heard of Click! before and after rummaging around in
some of my old directories I actually found a copy! Which is good
because the Oasis's FTP site was down. ;-) I'll check out Click!
today.

In the absence of your email address...
With respect Scott, only one development environment, xMate, has been
suggested in these public responses to your request for help. The
other suggestions, Snap and Click!, are both one way utilities. They
examine your source code, create reformatted copies, and optionally
create statistics about your application. Snap will probably be of
greater value to you because it can document the use of variables in
quite some detail. Similarly for the dbf, index, mem and frm files
that your application may use.
Feel free to visit again.
