This seems to get closed to the required output:

Updated: Corrected fencepost-ish error.

Update2: Added a second pass to condense it a bit.

#! perl -slw use strict; ( my $input = do{ local $/; <DATA> } ) =~ tr[\n][]d; my $tab = 0; $input =~ s[([()])]{ $tab-- if $1 eq ')'; my $modified = "\n" . ( " " x $tab ) . $1; $tab++ if $1 eq '('; $modified; }ge; $input =~ s[\n\s+\)][)]g; print $input; __DATA__ (&(&(&(& (mailnickname=*) (| (&(objectCategory=person)(objectClass=use +r)(!(homeM DB=*))(!(msExchHomeServerName=*)))(&(objectCategory=person)(objectClas +s=user)(| (homeMDB=*)(msExchHomeServerName=*)))(&(objectCategory=person)(objectC +lass=cont act))(objectCategory=group)(objectCategory=publicFolder)(objectCategor +y=msExchD ynamicDistributionList) )))(objectCategory=contact)(proxyAddresses=smt +p:*exampl e.com)))

Yields:

P:\test>junk1 (& (& (& (& (mailnickname=*) (| (& (objectCategory=person) (objectClass=user) (! (homeMDB=*)) (! (msExchHomeServerName=*))) (& (objectCategory=person) (objectClass=user) (| (homeMDB=*) (msExchHomeServerName=*))) (& (objectCategory=person) (objectClass=contact)) (objectCategory=group) (objectCategory=publicFolder) (objectCategory=msExchDynamicDistributionList) ))) (objectCategory=contact) (proxyAddresses=smtp:*example.com)) )

Examine what is said, not who speaks -- Silence betokens consent -- Love the truth but pardon error.
Lingua non convalesco, consenesco et abolesco. -- Rule 1 has a caveat! -- Who broke the cabal?
"Science is about questioning the status quo. Questioning authority".
In the absence of evidence, opinion is indistinguishable from prejudice.

Title:
Use:  <p> text here (a paragraph) </p>
and:  <code> code here </code>
to format your post; it's "PerlMonks-approved HTML":



  • Are you posting in the right place? Check out Where do I post X? to know for sure.
  • Posts may use any of the Perl Monks Approved HTML tags. Currently these include the following:
    <code> <a> <b> <big> <blockquote> <br /> <dd> <dl> <dt> <em> <font> <h1> <h2> <h3> <h4> <h5> <h6> <hr /> <i> <li> <nbsp> <ol> <p> <small> <strike> <strong> <sub> <sup> <table> <td> <th> <tr> <tt> <u> <ul>
  • Snippets of code should be wrapped in <code> tags not <pre> tags. In fact, <pre> tags should generally be avoided. If they must be used, extreme care should be taken to ensure that their contents do not have long lines (<70 chars), in order to prevent horizontal scrolling (and possible janitor intervention).
  • Want more info? How to link or How to display code and escape characters are good places to start.
