I'm wondering, is unhtml really such a useful package to have in the archive? The package description really sounds like it's a perl-oneliner, indeed, the .deb's are 11kB in size. What is the added value of this package to Debian? Also, why can't this script/program be included in some other package that does html-processing? Or, what about lynx -dump -stdin with some extra options to drop the footnotes on links etc? It'll also reformat for certain textwidths etc, making it IMHO much more useful. --Jeroen -- Jeroen van Wolffelaar [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://jeroen.A-Eskwadraat.nl -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.

And it does not strip the contents within script / tags. If you count this as an additional value. This program seems to be very lightweight, without a interpreter overhead. If you only need the HTML tags stripped without a pretty formatting like the output of a Lynx dump this would be for you.

Bug#309264: O: unhtml -- Remove the markup tags from an HTML file
Package: wnpp Severity: normal I intend to orphan the unhtml package. It's been over a year since I used the package, and have no further time for it nor interest in it. The package description is: This program removes all HTML tags from an HTML file and directs its output to stdout. It can be used as a filter for getting the text content of an HTML file without the need of firing up a web browser. -- System Information: Debian Release: 3.1 APT prefers unstable APT policy: (500, 'unstable'), (500, 'testing') Architecture: i386 (i686) Shell: /bin/sh linked to /bin/bash Kernel: Linux 2.6.8-2-686 Locale: LANG=C, LC_CTYPE=C (charmap=ANSI_X3.4-1968) -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of unsubscribe.
