Python wrapper for HTML Tidy (tidylib) on Python 2 and 3

`PyTidyLib`_ is a Python package that wraps the `HTML Tidy`_ library. This allows you, from Python code, to "fix" invalid (X)HTML markup. Some of the library's many capabilities include: * Clean up unclosed tags and unescaped characters such as ampersands * Output HTML 4 or XHTML, strict or transitional, and add missing doctypes * Convert named entities to numeric entities, which can then be used in XML documents without an HTML doctype. * Clean up HTML from programs such as Word (to an extent) * Indent the output, including proper (i.e. no) indenting for ``pre`` elements, which some (X)HTML indenting code overlooks. Small example of use ==================== The following code cleans up an invalid HTML document and sets an option:: from tidylib import tidy_document document, errors = tidy_document('''<p>f&otilde;o <img src="bar.jpg">''', options={'numeric-entities':1}) print document print errors
