In case its useful to anyone, below is some regular expressions to turn (at
least some) of the local-relative links to tiddly pretty links:
import re
regex = r"<a.+?href=\"(?!https?)([^\"]+?)(?:\.html)?\"[^>]*>([^<]+)<\/a>"
test_str = "I want to turn <a href=\"local-link.html\">title</a> to a
particular wiki format: [[title|local-link]]"
subst = "[[$2|$1]]"
# You can manually specify the number of replacements by changing the 4th
argument
result = re.sub(regex, subst, test_str, 0)
if result:
print (result)
