 Comments and suggestions for names welcome. Devel::MultiTidy?


I like the Any:: name space for things that offer single interfaces to
multiple back-ends. One could argue that Tidying really doesn't fit
there though. And that argument could be countered with hypothetical
examples involving large projects with different styles, enforced by
different tidying engines, for different parts of it, and the desire
for the scripts called at check-in time to run the correct tidying
engine by looking up per-file metadata.

Yeah, Any::Tidy seemed to suggest to me use the best of available tidiers.

I'm leaning now towards Devel::TidyAll, with tidyall being the name of the 
script.
