How to auto format SAS program?

[whymath]

In SAS EG or SAS studio, I can use key Ctrl + I to auto formatter my program. I have two question for it:
1. How can I do this in SAS Base(Display Manager System)?

2. May I process amounts of program files in batches? If so, How?

1. No, not in Base SAS
2. You can submit a .bat file (on Windows) that executes all the desired programs; or you can use %INCLUDE in a single program, something like this:

%include "g:\myfolder\mysubfolder\program1.sas";
%include "g:\myfolder\mysubfolder\program2.sas";

I am very interested in the answer too. My gues sis that it will be in the APIs SAS EG uses. Look at Chris H's articles on Custom EG Tasks, PowerShell automation, C#. It should be in there as a method call.

I would try and find it for you right now but just too many things happening. However, if it was going to be in EG, and accessible, it should be in their dlls and libraries. Hope that is a hint you can use.
