Both libtidy and uTidylib must be installed on your system. + +This extension is available in the standard Markdown library since version 2.0. + +[HTML Tidy]: http://tidy.sourceforge.net/ +[uTidylib]: http://utidylib.berlios.de/ + +Note than any Tidy [options][] can be passed in as extension configs. So, +for example, to output HTML rather than XHTML, set ``output_xhtml=0``. To +indent the output, set ``indent=auto`` and to have Tidy wrap the output in +```` and ```` tags, set ``show_body_only=0``. See Tidy's +[options][] for a full list of the available options. The defaults are set to +most closely match Markdowns defaults with the exception that you get much +better pretty-printing. + +[options]: http://tidy.sourceforge.net/docs/quickref.html + +Note that options set in this extension will override most any other settings +passed on to Markdown (such as "output_format"). Unlike Markdown, this extension +will also treat raw HTML no different than that output by Markdown. In other +words, it may munge a document authors carefully crafted HTML. Of course, it +may also transform poorly formed raw HTML into nice, valid HTML. Take these +things into consideration when electing to use this extension. -- cgit v1.2.3
