Actually as a very un-informed Win32 programmer (but possibly "computer literate" ?) I think this reply is a tad crass. From the ins and outs of Win311/95/98/Me/2000/NT/etc... (probably more than 30 versions if you count updates and upgrades and all the other "shit" that gets thrown on top) - I think the assumption that any software should happily cross the borders of inconsistent APIs and system dlls is probably more naive than I am. However - seriously I expect that the tidy library doesn't (or shouldn't touch too much of the system "stuff" that could cause any problems. - perhaps someone who has worked on the project could enlighten us on any issues if there are any (rather than talking "shite" about Windoze being a 2 layered DOS) - I dont really think the OS "shit" that goes above, below and inside any version of windows is going to lead you to that answer anyway :-) More to the point, perhaps the "computer literates" could spend "their" time being more constructive to first timers to support good free software rather than coming up with this sarcastic and unhelpful b.s. ----- Original Message ----- From: Matt G To: Stuart D.

Of course that would probably confuse them too. Matt ----- Original Message ----- From: Stuart D. Ross To: html-tidy@w3.org Sent: Friday, August 31, 2001 5:35 PM Subject: HTML Tidy . . . Looks like a fine app, but I run Windows ME. Do you plan to market an ME version? Thanks. Stuart D.
