How do I get HTML Tidy to not put newline before closing tags?

Question

HTML Tidy has this infuriating habit of putting a newline before the closing tag. For example:

Some text

<

Answer 1

hmm I don't see it in windows.

I am using Tidy with ruby

   @tidy.options.output_xhtml = true
   @tidy.options.show_body_only = true
   @tidy.clean('
Some text
')

I also ran the tidy script in unbuntu (tidy -m test.htm) but did not see that problem. You can control the spacing using the options at http://tidy.sourceforge.net/docs/quickref.html#PrettyPrintHeader
