I am just trying to strip the tags and preserve formatting. Of course, you can do a quick hack (s/<.*?>//g;#etc), but that still leaves you with messy line breaks. I've already tried saving the file as text from both Netscape and Lynx, and they did a pretty poor job. A good script might put a "*" before list items, might apporxtimate tables, etc. No sense in hacking something together when someone problably wrote a powerful version.
