Is there a way to run a prg through BEAUTIFY without bringing up Tools->Beautify? e.g. BEAUTIFY anyprogram.prg Wes Wilson, President ERW Custom Programming, Inc.

Sure. The location of the code is stored in _beautify. So something like DO (_beautify) WITH <file to beautify> should do the trick. Although I wouldn't take my word for it. I'd go look at the VFP source to verify parameters. :-)

Could we beautify source codes into HTML files? :)

Actually, that's built-in, too. Of course, the Beautified HTML won't run ;) See:
https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms917378.aspx
and search for "HTML"
The articles states:
In the Class Browser, you can export code to HTML. With a class highlighted in the left pane, right-click the View Code button. This invokes your Web browser and opens the browser window over the right pane of the Class Browser.
In fact, in VFP9, you cannot right-click the class but there is a "View Code" button on the toolbar. However this does not display the code in a Web browser but in a modeless window. Clicking on this button whilst another class is highlighted shows the code in the same modeless window rather than in a separate window.

No, the class is *highlighted* using the usual left-mouse click: a CLASS needs to be highlighted, not just a VCX.
Then, you right-click on the View Code button, on the toolbar.
However this does not display the code in a Web browser but in a modeless window. Clicking on this button whilst another class is highlighted shows the code in the same modeless window rather than in a separate window. <
If you right-click in the modeless window, you will notice the options are not VFP options; they are web browser options.
As far as I can tell, this is simply a parlor trick; I can't really come up with a use for this "feature." I recalled Ken Levy demonstrating it for us years ago. I'm not sure he had a use for it, either, other than "Isn't that cool?"
It's true that the article was written for VFP, and the Class Browser code has been updated since then. If you'd like to see what it is actually doing, check out the XSource.
Well, I never knew that. Could be useful for diffing different versions of classes etc.
