html2text is a command line utility, written in C++, that converts
|
||
|
|
HTML documents (HTML 3.2) into plain text (ISO 8859-1).
|
||
|
|
|
||
|
|
Each HTML document is loaded from a location indicated by an URI or
|
||
|
|
read from standard input, and formatted into a stream of plain text
|
||
|
|
characters that is written to standard output or into an output-file.
|
||
|
|
The input-URI may specify a remote site, from that the documents are
|
||
|
|
loaded with the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP). The program is
|
||
|
|
even able to preserve the original positions of table fields and
|
||
|
|
accepts also syntactically incorrect input, attempting to interpret it
|
||
|
|
"reasonably". The rendering is largely customisable through an RC
|
||
|
|
file.
