Hello all, Steve Hancock, author of perltidy, was very nice and incorporated as well as improved my suggestions to make perltidy work under MacPerl.
For those who don't know it is an ideal tool to reformat your Perl source code, html-ify it, all with flexible user settings. It can be very helpful in debugging bizarre source code too. It comes with extensive documentation. Just go to http://perltidy.sourceforge.net and get the Unix version, drop it onto the "installme" droplet. It's most convenient if you make a droplet from the bin:perltidy script. perltidy works happily with 520r4 and 561bn. I tried to integrate perltidy as a BBEdit Perl Filter without success. Does anybody know how to access the file path a filter works on? ($ARGV is empty, $ARGV[0] refers to "...:Cleanup at Startup:myfile.pl§") Best regards, Axel.
