code for PHP Code Formatting with sed blog post

format_code.sed

# this line reads the whole file in so we can do multiline substitution
:a;N;$!ba;

# this gets rid of our 5 line breaks between functions
s/\n\n\n\n\n/\n\n/g

# this puts curly braces on the same line with the control structures/function definitions to which they belong
# be aware that if there is a set of lines like this:
# 
# if(myTest) //here's some documentation
# {
#     next line of code
#     ...
#
# the curly brace will end up in the end of the comment; watch out for that
