Public bug reported:
Currently it stops convertion on any decode error:
$ html2markdown broken_text
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "/usr/bin/html2markdown", line 9, in <module>
load_entry_point('html2text==3.200.3', 'console_scripts', 'html2text')()
File "/usr/lib/python3/dist-packages/html2text.py", line 781, in main
data = data.decode(encoding)
UnicodeDecodeError: 'utf-8' codec can't decode byte 0x91 in position 4: invalid
start byte
But for the files I'm working on it would be perfectly fine just to add
data = data.decode(encoding, errors='ignore')
It can be exposed as an option.
