Hi folks, For years, I used Aaron Swartz's (RIP) html2.txt.py to convert HTML docs to -- wait for it -- text. When working, it did a wonderful job leaving you with clean Markdown-formatted output, even if supplied with Google Docs' excuse for HTML export as its input.
<https://github.com/html2text/html2text.py> At some point, this stopped functioning as a text filter. I'm not sure if it was a change to BBEdit or to OS X. It was probably a while ago because I tried it, it failed with an error, and I left it. Now, I have something it may be useful for, but the forks of the python script *appear* to have complexified it in a manner that it's not a single file I can just drop into the Text Filters folder of BBEdit. <https://github.com/Alir3z4/html2text/> (please correct me if I'm wrong on that one) Does anyone have this functioning on BBEdit 11.5.1 and OS X 10.11.4? Does anyone have a worthy replacement? (Converts HTML > Markdown-formatted plain text) I am aware of the the `Markup > Utilities > Translate HTML to Text…` feature of BBEdit, but unfortunately, it is not as capable. (I'd love to see the BBEdit crew bulk this up based on Aaron's work!) Thanks kindly, ~brian briandigital.com | @briandigital -- This is the BBEdit Talk public discussion group.
