Is there a way to use TextWrangler to clean-up / tidy messy XML ?

Question

I don't need it to validate ( though that would be nice I don't think text wrangler does this) but to clean up messy .xml.

example this ...

<some><foo>
bar</foo></some>

to ...

<some>
   <foo>bar</foo>
</some>

thanks -MW

If you're after a tool, most editors have some sort of "Tidy" feature.

• In NotePad++: TestFX -> TestFX HTML Tidy -> Tidy: Reindent XML
• In Visual Studio: Ctrl-K, Ctrl-D (or Edit -> Advanced -> Format Document)

A quick google for TextWrangler turns up this - http://magp.ie/2010/02/15/format-xml-with-textwrangler/
