What is tidy?

I lately used wml to generate some html files that were DOM templates for
enhydra and had similar problems with table summaries, ids in html tags and
so on.

I usually don't use such existing wml::* tools, but I did something like
this:

<define-tag t2 endtag=required>
        <preserve id>
        <set-var %attributes>
        <tr id="<get-var id>1">
                <td class=lt colspan=2 height=5>&nbsp;</td>
        </tr>
        <tr id="<get-var id>2">
                <td class=mt>&nbsp;</td>
                <td class=mt width=100%><b>
                        %body
                </b></td>
        </tr>
        <restore id>
</define-tag>

Here you can use t2 like this <t2 id="abc">. The upper tr gets the id id1
and the lower one id2.
