Dowloading Findent

The bleeding edge is available here. The current version is 4.3.3 .

Note: the Chromium browser translates the character '~' into '_' in the name of a downloaded file.

Linux/OS-X source

Installation

   tar xf findent-4.3.3.tar.gz
   cd findent-4.3.3  
   ./configure --prefix=/usr/local 

If you want findent to understand the ESOPE extensions (see http://www-cast3m.cea.fr/html/esope/node1.html):

    ./configure --prefix=/usr/local --with-esope

    make  
    make check            # optional, runs comprehensive checks
    sudo make install     # for systems with sudo: Debian, UBUNTU, Linux MINT, ...
    su -c 'make install'  # for systems without sudo: Redhat, Scientifix Linux, ...

Windows executable

Extract the zip file and place findent.exe and wfindent.bat in a convenient place.

Use your package manager

If you want to be on the safe side, install findent using your package manager, e.g. for Debian-like distributions (Ubuntu, Linux mint, ...):

  apt install findent

Understandable, the distributions often do not offer the newest version or even do not offer findent at all.
