Something like this has been done at least twice before, with two good
solutions, both of which wanted to be the one-and-only ultimate solution to
formatting problems with scripts on this mailing list. As far as I know, the
one written by Jonathan "Wolf" Rentzsch was actually used once (by me) on a
script posted to this list, and the other was never used even once. (If
either has been used more than that, I would be curious to hear about it.)
Those two solutions included routines to "decode" the formatted script so
that it could be copied and pasted into a script editor for compiling,
without editing. If I understand you correctly, yours might be more
successful because it is a one-way-only, format-for-human-readability
solution.
