# fish_indent - indenter and prettifier

## Synopsis

    fish_indent [OPTIONS] [FILE...]

## Description

`fish_indent` is used to indent a piece of fish code. `fish_indent` reads commands from standard input or the given filenames and outputs them to standard output or a specified file (if -w is given).

The following options are available:

- `-w` or `--write` indents a specified file and immediately writes to that file.
- `-i` or `--no-indent` do not indent commands; only reformat to one job per line.
- `-v` or `--version` displays the current fish version and then exits.
- `--ansi` colorizes the output using ANSI escape sequences, appropriate for the current $TERM, using the colors defined in the environment (such as `$fish_color_command`).
- `--html` outputs HTML, which supports syntax highlighting if the appropriate CSS is defined. The CSS class names are the same as the variable names, such as `fish_color_command`.
- `-d` or `--debug=CATEGORY_GLOB` enables debug output and specifies a glob for matching debug categories (like `fish -d`). Defaults to empty.
- `-D` or `--debug-stack-frames=DEBUG_LEVEL` specify how many stack frames to display when debug messages are written. The default is zero. A value of 3 or 4 is usually sufficient to gain insight into how a given debug call was reached but you can specify a value up to 128.
- `--dump-parse-tree` dumps information about the parsed statements to stderr. This is likely to be of interest only to people working on the fish source code.
