1) Try instead, if your file is /home/somewhere/test.html:
(line folded for mail)
<lynxcgi://localhost/PATH/TO/gettidy.sh?/xxfile://localhost/home/
somewhere/test.html>
2) That's only for testing, and it should work with the script as it is.
Then, after doing
export xfile_proxy='lynxcgi://localhost/PATH/TO/gettidy.sh?/'
export xxfile_proxy='lynxcgi://localhost/PATH/TO/gettidy.sh?/'
before calling Lynx, access to
<xfile://localhost/home/somewhere/test.html>
<xxfile://localhost/home/somewhere/test.html>
should automatically invoke the script on the local file.
