Would some gold stars do? :) evolution take ASCII and iso.8859-15 text and turns it into HTML too (I think; don't *quote me*). I have a C prog that I've been using privingly for 11 years that does this and more, but what what I'm thinkg of is a script that would take a posted script and using the KEYWORDS of, say: "CATEORY: foo "FUNCTION: it_does_this "OPTIONS: can_do_this_or_that" BEGINSCRIPT !#/bin/sh echo "hello world" ENDSCRIPT and generate am HTML file like: <HTML> <BODY> <! this belongs in category "foo" --> <CENTER> Function</CENTER> This script does: "it does this" <P> <CENTER> Options</CENTER> This script "can do this or that" using flags "-a" "-b" "-c" <P> <PRE> !#/bin/sh echo "hello world" </PRE> <P> </BODY> </HTML> In most things I agree with the KISS philosophy: "Keep it simple, Sir". This is my off-the-top-of-my-head idea; I'm sure most of you guys are better at shell and-or HTML hacking and have better ideas. gary -- Gary Kline [EMAIL PROTECTED] www.thought.org Public service Unix _______________________________________________ freebsd-questions@freebsd.org mailing list http://lists.freebsd.org/mailman/listinfo/freebsd-questions To unsubscribe, send any mail to "[EMAIL PROTECTED]"
