-
- RDHTML2AG is Public Domain.
-
- You may use it, modify it and distribute it all over the world!
- RDHTML2AG may not be used in commercial software!
-
- Motivation
-
- There was no converter, that can convert HTML documents into AmigaGuide files.
-
- Introduction
-
- Better than nothing, RDHTML2AG can convert a subset of HTML 2 terms:
-
- <H1> to <H6> ... rendered as described in the HTML 2 Guide
- <I> ... as italic, @{I}
- <B> ... as bold, @{B}
- <BR> ... as line break
- <P> ... as new paragraph
- <HR> ... as 80 underlined spaces
- <UL> ... as indent parapraph (only with V39 AmigaGuide, means Kick 3.0), @{LINDENT}
- <OL> ... same as <UL>! Sorry, no numbering of <LI> items.
- <LI> ... as '* ' for <UL> and <OL>
- <A HREF=...> ... as node to another AmigaGuide file
- <IMG SRC=...> ... as [Image] or ['ALT text'] and Guide links to display these Images.
- <PRE> ... as preformatted
- <XMP> and <LISTING> ... same as <PRE> but only </XMP> or </LISTING> term will be recognized.
- <ADDRESS>, <CITE>, <EM> and <VAR> ... as italic
- <STRONG> ... as bold
- <BLOCKQUOTE> ... as new paragraph and italic
-
- Naturelemente all </...> to the above terms will be recognized :-)
-
- Replacement of & and so? Sorry, at the moment only & < > and " will be converted
- to '&', '<', '>' and '"'.
-
- Forms will be not converted ;-)
-
- Hyperlinks through the Net like http://... and so, doesn't work ;-), but will be displayed!
-
- Installation
-
- copy RDHTML2AG to Rexx:
-
- Usage
-
- Change in the directory, where you want to convert the HTML documents.
-
- rx RDHTML2AG your.html
-
- converts your guide in several files (each node, one file)
-
- rx RDAG2HTML ?
-
- prints the argument template Source/A.
-
- Future
-
- I have to write this stuff in C to speed it up. ARexx is fine but speed is
- better :-)
