Welcome to gmuck!
gmuck assists you in producing valid (X)HTML by checking CGI scripts,
XSL stylesheets, templates, normal HTML files or [you name it] and
reporting errors that it finds.
It is not a replacement for real validation tools, but is handy in
quick checks and in situations where validation of the actual generated
markup is troublesome.
gmuck is a line-oriented tool. Because of that, its structural
checking capabilities are limited, but it makes an attempt to report
syntactical errors as well as provides some lint-like features.
There gmuck distribution consists of the "HTML::GMUCK" module and the
"gmuck" command line interface to it.
See the gmuck(1) and HTML::GMUCK(3) manual pages
(or before installation, "perldoc bin/gmuck.pod" and
"perldoc lib/HTML/GMUCK.pod" in the dir where you unpacked gmuck),
and ChangeLog, TODO and BUGS files for more information.
gmuck is short for Generated MarkUp ChecKer, or Generated MUCK if you
like. Hmph, that's actually ambiguous, see above for a better explanation.
But gmuck sounds cool :)
