PerlTidy is a tool written in the Perl programming language to do static code analysis against code written in that same language. It uses either command-line switches or configuration files to reformat Perl scripts so they comply with specified coding rules. The default configuration is an approximation of the Perl Style Guide.[1]

Aside from the command line, there are a number of tools for alternate interfaces for PerlTidy, including one for the Padre IDE,[2] perltidy.el for Emacs,[3] and an online version.[4]

Since its introduction, PerlTidy has become an oft-recommend tool for Perl programmers, noted in a number of key books. Notably, the work Perl Best Practices provides a set of PerlTidy configurations[5] to match the syntax prescriptions in that book.
