Now what ?
Where are these "archives" ?

What is missing ?

Beautifying Source Code
You are not installing a Qt Creator plugin.
You download and install the Artistic Style software, then you enable the Beautifier plugin that is already present in Qt Creator.

Installation of Artistic Style can be done by building and installing the source code you have downloaded or by installing it from your Linux distribution's repository, e.g. sudo apt install astyle or equivalent

@ChrisW67I downloaded Ubuntu package "astyle" . This is what I get trying to get it install.

You are not installing a Qt Creator plugin: stop trying to do that

• Install Artistic Style : sudo apt install astyle
• Enable the Beautifier plugin that is already present in Qt Creator.

The steps are in the page I linked the first time.

@ChrisW67 I get it - Qt Beautifier is actually astyle. Duh Now I have to figure out how to actually make it to "remove empty lines" in source file....

@AnneRanch The Beautifier plugin can use one of several different C/C++ code formatting tools. Artistic Style is just one of them.
