I use Emacs, which mangles the above as follows:

if (ifClauseExample)
{
  for (forExample = 1; ;)
    {
      if (oneLineIf)
	shouldLookLikeThis();
    }
}

which appears pretty close to perfect. Emacs does offer several other styles,
and the ability to roll your own, if you're willing to delve into the info
files.
