I haven't installed the package yet btw (other issues facing me that are priorities). I worked a lot last week and this week on building HTML Tidy on Cygwin, myself. When i say "worked" I don't mean that it was SO hard to do, but I wanted a robust Makefile that I could drop-in for all future revisions (untill they change something very large) of the source, which seems to be under quite active development. One question: did you not get a rather large number of compiler warnings from the 2002-06-?? revision of Tidy? Worrisome. Lots of yucky code in there. Another question: would you consider building it with a compiled-in configuration file path-name like "/etc/tidyrc" so that users can maintain a system config file for Tidy, which I feel is a big help given the large number of configuration options Tidy takes, which can be very hard to recall to mind between one session invocation of Tidy and another days or weeks later? To see what I mean look in platform.h, I believe. If you do # '-DCONFIG_FILE='"/foo/something"' on the make commandline, even without editing the makefile or the platform.h file, you'll get that desirable behavior. [Pls excuse the hash '#' at col 0, it's there because my funky web-emailer cannot resist reformatting the line on 'send' if not, otherwise].
