Downloadable CSS checker?

The W3C offers a CSS validator for download
<http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/DOWNLOAD.html> but the build
seems to require a bunch of UNIX tools.

Does anyone know of a downloadable CSS2 validator for DOS or Windows
users? (I searched back to 1988 in Google but couldn't find
anything.)

All CSS "validators" are in fact CSS checkers, that said, Topstyle has a
CSS check function.

Not at all. You download it with CVS, build it with Ant, and run it with a
JRE. All of these are cross-platform. Knowing what you need and setting
it all up can be a bit of a nightmare though.

Thanks, Jim. I guess I was hoping for something stand-alone, like
NSGMLS. I'd have to install a _lot_ of software, just for one tool
that I would use maybe 1% as often as NSGMLS. Also I was hoping for
something runnable from the command line, so I could invoke it in
makefiles. I'll save your article, though, for when I get ambitious.

Pity there's no DTD for CSS, then I could just use NSGMLS on it!
