Fwd: Tidy-cvs digest, Vol 1 #333 - 1 msg

Hi OTF,

In the future, please do not send messages to the CVS notification 
list.  Just drop a line to the tidy-develop list.

To answer your question, Tidy doesn't do that.  I implemented a working 
version of Tidy that does do that, but found the product had changed a 
great deal in the meantime and never found time to do the merge.

Currently, Tidy's entire notion of entities is entwined the character 
encoding settings.  To implement what you (and many others) want, Tidy 
needs to preserve character entities in the source text distinctly from 
output entities based on the character encoding.  If anyone gets ambitious, 
I would be happy to share my snapshot of the code that implements this feature.

Thanks,
Charlie
