Does anyone know of a utlilty/tool that will take a PG html file and do a pretty print on the file? Even a little bit?

I found HTMLTrim for you. It seems to use Tidy. It's not specifically for PG texts, though.

Most of the PG-related utilities I've seen involve converting to HTML from their text files, or displaying their text files more beautifully based on their layout.

Hope that helped a little.

I have been using Tidy Online and looking for a local utility. It seems to be Tidy also. It works fine so far and is quite fast and the GUI simplifies things.

Thank you very much.

I bother you again. htmltiny works fine except it will not remember the option setting from one use to the next.

Have you used it? Does it need a config file and if so what is the format?

Does capidamonte mean scaramouch?

Thanks

Never used it, I'm afraid; was just trying to help out.

Did you try contacting the author? He seems pretty open about talking with users. I think he would help you.

It's based on Tidy, so there has to be a configuration somewhere -- hopefully it's not just in memory.

Scaramouche was a hero, wasn't he? Il Capitano Capidamonte is... something else. (Try this link; and this one.)
