Pretty Print HTML Extension?

HTML Tidy is not a good alternative for me, even though I can use it through a couple different text editors. It messes with the code slightly. Is there an extension out there that can give me more control over the pretty-printing of HTML, and possibly do so on multiple files at once?

I assume that you mean by "pretty-printing" that you want the code formatted in a particular fashion, but if not, please do provide more about exactly what you'd like to do. If you go to Commands -> Apply Source Formatting, Dreamweaver will use the settings within the Tag Libraries to format your code. To change how the formatting occurs, go to Edit -> Tag Libraries select the tag library (such as HTML) that you want to edit and expand it to see the individual tag settings.
