It seems that you solved your problem using the indent(1) program, which
is nice. But if I want to do this kind of complex substitution in
Emacs, I use macros. If you're not familiar with them, I'd recommend
reading the relevant section of the manual. Emacs macros are really
easier than they sound, and very useful.
Also, consider learning some elisp. I find that a quick function in the
scratch buffer is sometimes the simplest way of accomplishing a task.
