They do appear to provide a separate download for this as well:

mxTidy is under the eGenix Public License (a Python style license),
the original HTML Tidy under a BSD-style license. Both are compatible
with the LGPL, AFAIK. However, they also both require that the licenses
be kept with the source code. If that's not the case, then they are in
violation of the licenses.

Looking at their archive

    http://www.keyphrene.com/products/org.keyphrene/?lng=en

they don't provide any license or documentation files whatsoever,
so I guess we need to have a friendly word with them :-)
