MacTidy - a standalone application that uses a graphical user interface (GUI). This allows quick porting of the "Tidy" source with minimal changes at the expense of slightly less flexibility.

Tidy for Mac OS checks and corrects HTML and XML to make it compliant with the Worldwide Web Consortium (W3C) HTML standards.

What's New:
Updated the base "tidy" source code to the latest version available (01 Dec 02) for "classic" Tidy (future versions of MacTidy will use a new base "tidy" source code, called TidyLib). This version of the base "tidy" source code fixes many bugs, and adds many new features since the previous release - too many to list here.
Output actual tab chars rather than spaces, to be compatible with versions of Tidy on other platforms.
Add support for the Character Encoding popup menu.
Add support for a separate dialog for additional configuration options specified on the command line.
Add support for input files with no filetype/creator.
Dim/undim the controls on the main dialog when a second dialog/Alert is being displayed/dismissed.
Changed initialization code to support checking for 68 based machines when compiled as 68020 code.
Balloon Help updated for the new dialog layout. Improvements to the dialog layout for Mac OS X Aqua GUI.
"Read Me First" documentation rewritten and delivered as a PDF document.
