Thanks Bruce for the pointer on this tool, even if it is not perfect I
think it can be useful. There's also an on-line version at
http://sqlformat.darold.net/ that every one can use without having to
install it and to format queries up to 20Kb with option to control the
output format. It can also anonymize SQL queries.

Actually this is the SQL formatter/beautifier used in pgBadger, it has
been extracted as an independent project to be able to improve this part
of pgBadger without having to run it each time.
