What do people use to convert html pages to a legible formatted text
representation? I find that netscape 4.[78] is by far the best (save as
text), I can't recall it having ever let me down. Occasionally, lynx
-dump and html2text produce better results, but frequently both of them
also produce downright rubbish (it all depends on the particular page).
Mozilla unfortunately didn't copy the function form netscape 4, and
produces output no better than that of html2text/lynx, but the latter 2
are considerably less bloated (understatement).

I expect netscape 4 to be dropped any time, and I'd prefer a command
line solution. Is there anything better than netscape 4?

Thanks,

Volker
