Algorithm for neatly indenting SQL statements (Python implementation would be nice) | 798,180 | <p>I'd like to reformat some SQL statements that are a single string with newlines in to something that's much easier to read.</p>

<pre><code>SELECT what1, what2, etc,
FROM table
WHERE condition
AND condition
AND condition
ORDER BY whatever

<p>But that's just me. I don't think proper automatic tools exist.</p>

Python tool that builds a dependency diagram for methods of a class | 798,389 | <p>I'm digging into a huge legacy Python class that has a lot of methods. I eventually break complex ones into smaller pieces so the amount of methods increases even more. I wonder if there is a tool that can scan the Python code and build some kind of dependency diagram for its methods.</p>

I believe it allows you to use the "call hierarchy" feature of Eclipse to view a call graph for a given method. It's not quite what you want but maybe it's enough to get started.</p>
