Thanks; it works fine if one specifies utf8 for input and ascii for
output in a config file .tidy like:

$ cat .tidy
output-xhtml: yes
add-xml-decl: no
doctype: strict
input-encoding: utf8
output-encoding: ascii
indent: auto
wrap: 76
repeated-attributes: keep-last
error-file: errs.txt

Then you can run and get valid ASCII HTML style, for example:

$ echo 'ΜΙΣΟ ΛΙΤΡΟ ΑΘΩΣ ΚΟΚΚΙΝΟ ΠΑΡΑΚΑΛΩ' | tidy -config .tidy 

<!DOCTYPE html PUBLIC "-//W3C//DTD XHTML 1.0 Strict//EN"
    "http://www.w3.org/TR/xhtml1/DTD/xhtml1-strict.dtd">

<html xmlns="http://www.w3.org/1999/xhtml">
<head>
  <meta name="generator" content=
  "HTML Tidy for FreeBSD (vers 7 December 2008), see www.w3.org" />

  <title></title>
</head>

  &Alpha;&Theta;&Omega;&Sigma;
  &Kappa;&Omicron;&Kappa;&Kappa;&Iota;&Nu;&Omicron;
  &Pi;&Alpha;&Rho;&Alpha;&Kappa;&Alpha;&Lambda;&Omega;
</body>
</html>

This is exactly what I was looking for. Thanks
