Description: Utility to convert HTML documents into plain text.

Long Description: html2text is a command line utility, written in C++, that converts HTML documents into plain text. Each HTML document is loaded from a location indicated by a URI or read from standard input, and formatted into a stream of plain text characters that is written to standard output or into an output-file. The input-URI may specify a remote site, from that the documents are loaded via the Hypertext Transfer Protocol (HTTP).

%  cd /opt/local/bin/portslocation/dports/html2text
%  sudo port install html2text

You will then be prompted for your root password, which you should enter. You may have to wait for a few minutes while the software is retrieved from the network and installed for you. Y ou should see something that looks similar to:

--->  Fetching html2text
--->  Verifying checksum for html2text
--->  Extracting html2text
--->  Configuring html2text
--->  Building html2text with target all

--->  Staging html2text into destroot

--->  Installing html2text

- Make sure that you do not close the terminal window while Darwin Ports is working. Once the software has been installed, you can find further information about using html2text with these commands:

%  man html2text
%  apropos html2text
%  which html2text
%  locate html2text
