It will work fine. When we began developing Quanta years ago Gnome libraries 
were not stable and the KDE libraries were and are richer and more enjoyable 
to write to. While you can run it in Ubuntu you can also look at Kubuntu 
libraries and even install both. There are a lot of excellent KDE programs.

In the panel on the left open the script tab and look for the tidy script. You 
can also load this up from the toolbar using the instructions Andras 
provided. This was built in Kommander some years back before it had all the 
functionality it presently has. For instance it says it doesn't work with 
multiple instances of Quanta, but it will work now if someone wants to update 
the script. It can easily take the file from Quanta and replace it with the 
processed result. I believe it supports nearly every option of Tidy too.

On a side note Kommander is another excellent KDE application bundled with 
Quanta. It allows for visually drawing your GUI and then using either native 
functions or scripting or any scripting language that runs in the shell. 
Using Kommander, DCOP and scripting you can enhance Quanta to a state it 
would be unrecognizable all without writing a line of C++.

Try Kommander. You will be amazed. You can program with point and click in the 
function browser as easy as you can use a spreadsheet like Kspread or OO.org 
Calc.
