    Hi Lachlan,

    I also use TextMate, but I can't get the HTML Tidy command to work at
    all if there are any WO tags in the HTML. Do you know if there's a
    new HTML Tidy plug-in that fixes this? Whenever I try, all my HTML
    disappears in the TextMate window. BBEdit is too expensive.

    Thanks,
