HTTX
Informations
HTTX is an HTML to formatted text converter.
The program doesn't just remove HTML tags but interprets the document trying to reproduce its original layout and thus improving readability of the converted text. Here there are some of the HTTX features:
- Text wordwrap.
- Support for all types of lists (with indentation).
- ANSI conversion (with optional optimized output) of HTML styles and separators.
- Support for HTML, NHTML and Win'95 entities.
- 7 bit conversion of HTML/NHTML/Win'95 entities (eg.
"©"->"(c)") - Support for alignment (center and right) of text (headers and paragraphs) and separators.
- Display of links and IMG's ALT-Text.
- Support for badly written HTML.
- Support for multiple external configuration files.
- (optional) Full integration with AWeb browser!
HTTX requires Kickstart 2.04 (37.175) or above.
Current version
Current version is 2.0b, released on
31/12/1999.
Here there are some of the features added since previous version:
- Reorganized in a modular way the HTML parser, now faster and more expandable.
- Style HTML tags are now recognized only when ANSI conversion is enable, thus making non ANSI conversion a bit faster.
- Added full support for alphabetical and mixed (numeric/alphabetical) lists.
- Added options ANSIMODE (choice of the used ANSI mode), ANSICOL (colour of the links), TDEOL (insertion of an EOL between the cells of a table) and SETNOTE (type of the file note added to the saved file).
- Added an easter egg ;-)
- Fixed (hopefully) all the wordwrap bugs and their side effects, such as duplication of part of the text, bad line length sizing, and so on...
