NAME

       html2stx - convert HTML documents into Stx

SYNOPSIS

       html2stx [ file ]

DESCRIPTION

       html2stx  takes  the given file, which should contain an HTML document, and converts it to
       structured text (Stx).  If no file is given, standard input is read instead.

       The program does not attempt to convert every possibly convertible piece  of  markup  into
       Stx.  For example, <font> tags are simply ignored.  This tends to result in a nice, clean,
       beautiful document.  (If it doesn't, the source document probably does not contain  enough
       information to start with.)

OPTIONS

       None.

DIAGNOSTICS

       html2stx  is a python script and will throw an exception if something goes amiss.  In this
       case, the return value will be non-zero.

BUGS

           •   The word wrapping algorithm is probably not very clever.

           •   Sometimes there are extra linebreaks in the output.

           •   Probably many others.
