[Bug] Spaces are significant

Hello,

First thanks for this wonderful tool. I was using Terry Teague's 
BBTidy about 50 times a day and just switched to the 18 March Mac OS 
X build.

Tidy is eliminating spaces, making Web pages unreadable. Is this 
something that can please be fixed? If I goofed in the configuration 
file, any tips you may have to fix this would be appreciated.
