licensed under the GPL, has a new home and the following changes: Multiple-line DOCTYPE declarations are now accepted (HTMLControl.C:352). ------------------------------ Bad initialisation of "fd_" in "urlistream" fixed (urlistream.h), so that an error message is printed if a remote document could not be retrieved. ------------------------------ A missing node now is interpreted as node '/' (urlistream.C). ------------------------------ Closing DIV, FORM and BLOCKQUOTE tags as well as the closing UL, OL and PRE tags are now optional (HTMLParser.y), so that the program won't die any longer if one of them is omited in the document. ------------------------------ Some dificulties with non-ASCII chars fixed (HTMLControl.C). ------------------------------ Colons in elements and attributes now are tolerated and elements are not any longer implecitly closed at a newline (HTMLControl.C), in order to handly MS-Word's HTML better. ------------------------------ We do not use '/dev/stdin' as file descriptor any longer (html2text.C and urlistream.C), in order to make reading from STDIN finaly work. ------------------------------ Block elements are not enclosed in -implecit- Paragraphs any longer (HTMLParser.y), in order to avoid superfluous newlines in the output. ------------------------------ Fixed segmentation fault on tables with "border" attribute: we now assume that any TABLE has at least one row and one column (table.C). ------------------------------ Fixed format.C to avoid excessive runtime increment on parsing much nested block elements. ------------------------------ Some changes in configure, Makefile.in and the documentation. ------------------------------ ------------------------------ Ported to g++ version 3.0. This uses the 'istream.h' header file from the g++3's 'backward' directory. ------------------------------ Bugfix: '-' did not work as synonym for STDIN. ------------------------------ Added support for the EURO-sign (well, almost). ------------------------------ Finaly the GNU GPL as new copyright terms for all parts of the program, after GMRS agreed to change the program's license terms to it. ------------------------------ ------------------------------ Fixed coredump when parsing empty <SCRIPT> or <STYLE> elements (HTMLControl.C). ------------------------------ New image handling: <IMG alt=""> does no longer return the value of the SRC attribute nor "[]". Added new ~/.html2textrc options: IMG.replace.{all noalt} and IMG.alt.{prefix suffix} with new defaults in pretty-style mode. Added method for checking whether an attribut was set, even to a zero-value. ------------------------------ (New) Copyright terms for all changes we made since version 1.2.2. ------------------------------ Some minor changes in configure and html2text.C. ------------------------------ Updated the documentation. ------------------------------ ------------------------------ Fixed segmention fault when parsing <H5> tags (typo in format.C). ------------------------------

Html2text reads HTML 3.2 documents from the input-urls, formats each
|
|
into a stream of ASCII characters and writes the result to standard
|
|
output (or into output-file, if the -o command line option is used).
|
|
It also accepts syntactically incorrect input and attempts to inter-
|
|
pret it "reasonably".

Documents that are specified by a URL that begins with "http:" are

retrieved with the Hypertext Transfer Protocol. URLs that begin with
|
|
"file:" and URLs that do not contain a colon specify local files.
