1.11 Miscellaneous options

To find out what version of indent you have, use the command indent -version. This will report the version number of indent, without doing any of the normal processing.

The ‘-v’ option can be used to turn on verbose mode. When in verbose mode, indent reports when it splits one line of input into two more more lines of output, and gives some size statistics at completion.

The ‘-pmt’ option causes indent to preserve the access and modification times on the output files. Using this option has the advantage that running indent on all source and header files in a project won't cause make to rebuild all targets. This option is only available on Operating Systems that have the POSIX utime(2) function.
