tidy is a nice CLI tool that can be used to pretty up some XML

I was interested in reviewing the raw format of CNN’s rss feed. tidy made it a lot easier to grok the structure of the XML:

curl http://rss.cnn.com/rss/cnn_latest.rss 2>&1 | tidy -xml -iq

• -xml — specify the input is well formed xml
• -i — auto indent
• -q — quiet: don’t display tool comments
