Notepad++ 6.1.x and HTMLTidy

Has someone got Notepad 6.1.x and HTMLTidy working and can tell me, where to download the dll / config. Using: Notepad++ 6.1.4 Win 7 x86

Yes, this Notepad++ / TidyHTML question has been already asked, but it either refers to outdated URLs, does not work with newer Notepad++ 6.1. versions, or does not work at all.

SO References:

  1. Format HTML document
  2. Notepad++ HTML Tidy
  3. Notepad++ HTML Tidy Unknown Exception Windows 7 x64

Here is what I did:

  1. Installed TextFx plugin as of Plugins / PluginManager: OK
  2. Created default tidycfg.ini as of here: http://sourceforge.net/apps/mediawiki/notepad-plus/index.php?title=HTML_Tidy
  3. Downloaded libtidy.dll from here: http://www.paehl.com/open_source/?HTML_Tidy_for_Windows (some cr... ad pops up)

Now I got a HTMLTidy menu, but when I run it, it crashes. So I would need a different dll or another setup whatsoever.

Menus are OK Crash

Solution

  • Eventually I found a solution here: https://stackoverflow.com/a/7935797/356726

    The 5.9 plugins worked for me with version 6.1.x of Notepad++, but even having the unicode version I had to use the ANSI plugin. The Unicode plugins crashed.
