NAME

       html2markdown - converts a page of HTML into markdown.

SYNOPSIS

       html2markdown [options...] [(filename|url) [encoding]]

DESCRIPTION

       html2markdown  downloads  the  specified HTML page, and converts it to text marked up with markdown.  The
       source HTML page may be a local file or remote URL.  If not specified, it  will  be  read  from  standard
       input.  The output is printed to standard output.

       If an encoding is specified, it will override any encoding information provided by the HTTP Server.  When
       not specified, python-feedparser (if available) will be used to determine the source  encoding.   If  not
       available, or when reading local files, the encoding is assumed to be UTF-8.
