ITP: tidy



Hello,

I intend to package the program tidy.

It can be found at: http://www.w3.org/People/Raggett/tidy

The homepage says:

When editing HTML it's easy to make mistakes. Wouldn't it be nice if there
was a simple way to fix these mistakes automatically and tidy up sloppy 
editing into nicely layed out markup? Well now there is! Dave Raggett's
HTML TIDY is a free utility for doing just that. It also works great on
the atrociously hard to read markup generated by specialized HTML editors 
and conversion tools, and can help you identify where you need to pay further
attention on making your pages more accessible to people with disabilities.

Tidy is able to fix up a wide range of problems and to bring to your 
attention things that you need to work on yourself. Each item found is listed 
with the line number and column so that you can see where the problem lies 
in your markup. Tidy won't generate a cleaned up version when there are
problems that it can't be sure of how to handle. These are logged as "errors"
rather than "warnings".

I'm not a developer yet.
I already made a package. Since it's my first package I would appreciate
it if someone would try it and look for errors.
