I currently have 2 different flavors of the Tidy code that runs on Mac OS, and while I am still adding features to one of the flavors, they both have a graphical user interface (GUI), and work like you would expect for any Mac OS application. Admittedly I haven't provided much additional documentation over what Dave provides, but at least balloon help is available for all configuration options. One of the flavors is a "filter plug-in" for FilterTop, a freely available batch oriented file manipulation utility, that has a GUI. This flavor currently provides the most flexibility. The other flavor is a standalone application, that I have only recently started work on, and the current public release only supports a single input/output/error file. The next release (coming soon) will support drag & drop of multiple files/folders/disks, and multiple input/output/error files, thereby allowing batch operation. Both flavors support use of a configuration file as with Tidy on other platforms. I suggest you visit my web page, download the software, and see for yourself. <http://www.geocities.com/SiliconValley/1057/tidy.html> Feel free to ask further questions. Regards, Terry
