| Hans-G?nter@24649 | 1 Html2text is a command line utility, written in C++, that converts HTML |
| Hans-G?nter@24649 | 2 documents into plain text. |
| Hans-G?nter@24649 | 3 |
| Hans-G?nter@24649 | 4 Each HTML document is loaded from a location indicated by a URI or read |
| Hans-G?nter@24649 | 5 from standard input, and formatted into a stream of plain text characters |
| Hans-G?nter@24649 | 6 that is written to standard output or into an output-file. |
| Hans-G?nter@24649 | 7 The input-URI may specify a remote site, from that the documents are |
| Hans-G?nter@24649 | 8 loaded via the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). |
| Hans-G?nter@24649 | 9 |
| Hans-G?nter@24649 | 10 The program is able to preserve the original positions of table fields, |
| Hans-G?nter@24649 | 11 allows you to set the screen width (to a given number of output |
| Hans-G?nter@24649 | 12 characters), and accepts also syntactically incorrect input (attempting |
| Hans-G?nter@24649 | 13 to interpret it "reasonably"). Boldface and underlined text is rendered |
| Hans-G?nter@24649 | 14 by default with backspace sequences (which is particulary usefull when |
| Hans-G?nter@24649 | 15 piping the program's output into "less" or an other pager). All rendering |
| Hans-G?nter@24649 | 16 properties can largely be costomised trough an RC-file. |
