Just try to format anything with a SUBSTRING(...FROM...) or EXTRACT(...FROM...)

Before:

        , sum(
            case
              when ( EXTRACT(YEAR FROM l_shipdate) * 100
                     + EXTRACT(MONTH FROM l_shipdate) )
                     =  (  EXTRACT( YEAR FROM (CURRENT_DATE-1) ) * 100
                         + EXTRACT( MONTH FROM (CURRENT_DATE-1) ))
              then l_extendedprice
              else 0
            end )

After Ctrl-Q:

        , sum(
        CASE
                WHEN    ( EXTRACT(YEAR
FROM    l_shipdate) * 100
                     + EXTRACT(MONTH
FROM    l_shipdate) )
                     =  (  EXTRACT( YEAR
FROM    (CURRENT_DATE-1) ) * 100
                         + EXTRACT( MONTH
FROM    (CURRENT_DATE-1) ))
              THEN l_extendedprice
                ELSE    0
        END     )

Or Subqueries or ...

This is just a dumb tokenizer which inserts a CR/LF plus Tabs after some keywords (at least you can get rid of those when you modify keywords.txt).

I really don't know why they don't use a Parser, because they already have one for Teradata SQL ;-)
