     1.4 +Html2text is a command line utility, written in C++, that converts HTML
     1.5 +documents into plain text.
     1.6 +
     1.7 +Each HTML document is loaded from a location indicated by a URI or read
     1.8 +from standard input, and formatted into a stream of plain text characters
     1.9 +that is written to standard output or into an output-file.
    1.10 +The input-URI may specify a remote site, from that the documents are
    1.11 +loaded via the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP).
    1.12 +
    1.13 +The program is able to preserve the original positions of table fields,
    1.14 +allows you to set the screen width (to a given number of output
    1.15 +characters), and accepts also syntactically incorrect input (attempting
    1.16 +to interpret it "reasonably"). Boldface and underlined text is rendered
    1.17 +by default with backspace sequences (which is particulary usefull when
    1.18 +piping the program's output into "less" or an other pager). All rendering
    1.19 +properties can largely be costomised trough an RC-file.
