Re: namespace clashing with GraphicsMagick

GetToken() is not part of the TidyLib public API.  Your application should 
only include headers from the /tidy/include subdirectory, never 
/tidy/src.  This separation was made precisely to prevent this sort of name 
collision.

If you choose to work with the internal API, then you are responsible for 
dealing with any resulting collisions.
