It seems like you could build this with the normal RCS and "indent". As long as the programmer's style can be represented by indent options you're in luck. "indent" it in one style and stuff it in RCS. When it is checked out, "indent" it in the programmers style. The only real work necessary might be a few changes to indent to fit your exact desires. Anybody done this? I'm tempted because people around here indent w/spaces.
