Well, HLIST is on SimTel (ha! ..."somewhere" there) but the source is
at the original authors's place too, in any case:
==> http://www.tennyo.org/martin/index.html
i.e. Martin Goebbel's homepage.
Mind that HLIST is strictly to view/screen-print HTML-formatted text
files; thus it's an "interpreter". (A bit crude but meant to be that:
fast and just showing the essentials). A totally different affair from
(a) stripping all those mark-ups from an HTML file, or (b) editing
(any) text file with mark-ups which would it make reproducible by a
HTML-browser (=interpreter). For (a), HTMSTRIP is indeed the best
solution. For (b), there is no "best solution" - beware of the "easy"
(Window$/Mac only) HTML-"processors" (of the M$-"FrontPage" flavour), as
they produce bloated junk; use of a clean text editor is straightforward
but tedious, as you have to enter all mark-up tags manually (but some
macros would help, with a good programmer's editor).
AFAIK there is no DOS based HTML-editor with built-in functionalities
for this purpose of HTML mark-up. I even think this is a real
challenge - instead of having all those idiot proprietary formats of
various "text processors" (with all their incompatibilities even
between own versions...), one good, sheer text-based (DOS, Linux) tool
to - separately ! - mark-up sheer text with HTML would solve *LOTS* of
problems of the file/print format wars between "proprietary" madness.
