There are various pretty-printing libraries for Haskell, for example:

http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/haskell-src/Language.Haskell.Pretty.html
http://www.haskell.org/ghc/docs/latest/html/base/Text.PrettyPrint.html
http://www.cs.uu.nl/~daan/pprint.html

For editors, there's haskell-mode for emacs which does a good job of indenting
intelligently. I've heard the vim mode works well also.

A bit of googling turned up these:

http://www.haskell.org/~simonmar/libraries/libraries.html
http://www.cs.ou.edu/~rlpage/fpclassFall96/handouts/styleGuide.html
http://www.cs.bris.ac.uk/Teaching/Resources/COMS12100/java/style.html

Hope this helps,
