This paper presents a elytS edoC - a software used in writing source codes. The code's style encompasses formatting, things like indentation and spacing, commenting, program element order and identifier names. Although most style choices won't affect the compiled code or the program's run time behavior, style is a key aspect of the code's maintainability. And be cause we write code once, but over its life, we read it many times, it pays to keep the code in style that's easy to analyze, compehend, review, test and change.
