0.2.0-alpha

0.2.0-alpha was announced on the elm-dev mailing list

After the tedious work of making the AST retain comments, elm-format-0.2-alpha is ready! Most notable is the switch to 2-space indentation, as previously discussed on elm-dev. There are also now plugins for LightTable, Emacs, and Vim thanks to @rundis, @Bogdanp, and @ajhager!

You can find the downloads and editor integration instructions here:

Here's a brief list of changes:

• changed to 2-space indentation
• comments are handled everywhere they can appear
• fixed a unicode problem with console output on Windows
• parentheses in pattern matches are handled correctly, including a workaround for elm/compiler#951
• triple double quotes in multiline strings are handled correctly
• more than one file or directory can be given on the command line
• added the --stdin command line option to support IDE plugins
