What is Tidy ?

Dave Raggett's HTML TIDY is a free utility for fixing mistakes in HTML pages automatically and tidy up sloppy editing into nicely layed out markup.
The official homepage of Tidy will tell you more about this in great detail. Just follow [link] this link.

For MPE/iX such tools may become more important in the future HPe3000 world. So I ported this freeware to MPE/iX and named it Tidy/iX in accordance to the other ported S/W like Samba/iX or Apache/iX - for YOUR pleasure!

Download

The compiled version of Tidy/iX, version 4th August 2000, containing the ported programs tidy (plus man page) and tab2space for HPe3000: [tar]

tidy04aug00.tar.Z (ca. 273 KB) is available from here.

Installation

The installation will move Tidy/iX to /usr/local/bin.
The recommended user is MANAGER.SYS.

Download the compressed tar file to your HPe3000 in binary format.
Invoke the Posix shell (SH.HPBIN.SYS).
Extract the files using
tar zxvf tidy04aug00.tar.Z
Change the security:
chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/tidy
chmod 755 /usr/local/bin/tab2space
chmod 644 /usr/local/man/man1/tidy.1
Check the result using
ls -als /usr/local/bin/* (or adequate).
Change the file's ownership if wanted.
READY! You may leave the shell now.

Example

You can use Tidy/iX out of the shell or directly out of MPE. A simple run of Tidy/iX could look alike (I used a previous version of this page!):

You are recommended to use CSS to specify the font and
properties such as its size and color. This will reduce
the size of HTML files and make them easier maintain
compared with using <FONT> elements.

HTML & CSS specifications are available from http://www.w3.org/
To learn more about Tidy see http://www.w3.org/People/Raggett/tidy/
Please send bug reports to Dave Raggett care of <html-tidy@w3.org>
Lobby your company to join W3C, see http://www.w3.org/Consortium

To modify the original file in place instead of showing the recommended HTML code on screen use the -m flag:

/usr/local/bin/tidy "-q -wrap 80 -m /APACHE/PUB/htdocs/hillschmidt/gbr/tidy.htm"

The final HTML code will look as suggested above!

Benefit for HPe3000

Why this port ?
As long as you develop your MPE HTML files on a PC using a Web editor like NetFusion or a simple text editor like NotePad or (my favourite) PFE32, and download the files via FTP to your HPe3000, you may already have such a tool on your PC.
Some PC editors also enable the usage of outside DLLs, e.g. [link]

Ulli Meybohm's HTML Editor Phase 5² to name a German one ;-) so that a PC-based Tidy may already be present.

But if you edit the HTML files directly on your HPe3000 using vi or Qedit, you do not have such an utility so far ... and so I thought it might be a good idea to port this S/W to MPE/iX.
Remark: HP's Lars Appel already suggested that I got hit by the porting fever ;-)
Nevertheless, Tidy/iX is there, I use it, and you may want do the same ... sooner or later ...
