gofmt works freaking beautifully for this though. Sure, if I tried to do it myself, I'd screw it up. That's why I don't do things that the computer can do better, easier, faster then I can. I just hit save, and my editor routes it through gofmt and refreshes file. It's to the point where I'll hit ctrl-s after moving a brace just to have gofmt reformat, CAUSE IT DOES IT FASTER THEN I COULD.
