Snippets from text processors or browsers are formatted with [Tidy] or [Wrap]
original text:
This text has a formatting similar to what you may get if you copy and paste from a word processor or browser. [Tidy] and [Wrap] will probably do equally well.

However, there are cases where [Wrap] beats [Tidy]. If there are lines longer than what is set as the line size, both are going to wrap these lines.
But [Tidy] needs a blank line to recognize a paragraph boundary, whereas [Wrap] converts all long lines to paragraphs.
There may be other cases where [Tidy] is not able to detect that it should not join lines, for instance if list elements don't have proper list markers.
