 #### Atom
   [Atom Beautify](https://atom.io/packages/atom-beautify) supports brittany as a formatter for Haskell. Since the default formatter is set to hindent, you will need to change this setting to brittany, after installing the extension.

 # Usage
 
 - Default mode of operation: Transform a single module, from `stdin` to `stdout`.
   Can pass one or multiple files as input, and there is a flag to override them
   in place instead of using `stdout` (since 0.9.0.0). So:
-  
+
     ~~~~ .sh
     brittany                           # stdin -> stdout
     brittany mysource.hs               # ./mysource.hs -> stdout
     brittany --write-mode=inplace *.hs # apply formatting to all ./*.hs inplace
     ~~~~
-    
+
 - For stdin/stdout usage it makes sense to enable certain syntactic extensions
   by default, i.e. to add something like this to your
   `~/.config/brittany/config.yaml` (execute `brittany` once to create default):
