NAME
HTML::FormatText::Html2text - format HTML as plain text using html2text
SYNOPSIS
use HTML::FormatText::Html2text; $text = HTML::FormatText::Html2text->format_file ($filename); $text = HTML::FormatText::Html2text->format_string ($html_string); $formatter = HTML::FormatText::Html2text->new; $tree = HTML::TreeBuilder->new_from_file ($filename); $text = $formatter->format ($tree);
DESCRIPTION
HTML::FormatText::Html2text
turns HTML into plain text using thehtml2text
program.The module interface is compatible with formatters like
HTML::FormatText
, but all parsing etc is done by html2text.See
HTML::FormatExternal
for the formatting functions and options, with the following caveats,input_charset
-
Currently this option has no effect. Input generally has to be latin-1 only, though the Debian extended
html2ext
interprets a<meta>
charset directive in the HTML header.Various
&
style named or numbered entities are recognised and result in suitable output. The suggestion would be entitized input for maximum portability amonghtml2text
versions. output_charset
-
If set to "ascii" or "ANSI_X3.4-1968" (both case-insensitive) the
html2text -ascii
option is used, when available (html2text
1.3.2 from Jan 2004).If set to "UTF-8" then Debian extension
-utf8
option is used (circa 2009).Apart from this there's no control over the output charset.
