Quick start

ffmt src/                        # format in-place
ffmt --check src/                # CI mode (exit 1 if changes needed)
ffmt --diff src/                 # show colored diff
ffmt -j 8 src/                   # parallel
cat file.fpp | ffmt -            # stdin/stdout

Features

• Code -- indentation, whitespace normalization, keyword casing, named ends, line wrapping, operator modernization (.eq. -> ==), double-colon enforcement, trailing semicolon removal
• Comments -- rewrapping, inline spacing (S102), !< alignment, !&/& ! cleanup, format suppression (! ffmt off/on)
• Structure -- blank line management around openers/closers/#ifdef, declaration :: alignment, declaration/use compaction
• Preprocessor -- Fypp (#:if, $:, @:), C preprocessor (#ifdef), OpenACC (!$acc), OpenMP (!$omp)
• Opt-in -- multi-statement splitting, assignment alignment, & column alignment, use-statement reformatting

Most options accept true, false, or "preserve". See the configuration reference for all options.
