Are there any command line (not interactive, not web-based) tools that will reformat (pretty-print) PHP and Javascript code?

            PHP_ Beautifier is very outdated! For a more modern approach try php-cs-fixer
Example command:
php-cs-fixer fix --rules=@PSR2 path/to/php/src
A second alternative is PHP_CodeSniffer
Example command: phpcbf --standard=PSR2 path/to/php/src

        For a PHP beautifier, you can also use this pear package PHP_Beautyfier, which can either be called from the command line or instantiated within your own PHP code. For the Javascript one instead, find an open discussion here

        I wrote an article explaining how to build a command-line JavaScript beautifier implemented in JavaScript. The best part - it takes under 5 minutes to do it, YMMV.
