html2text is a Python script that converts a page of HTML into clean, easy-to-read plain ASCII text. Better yet, that ASCII also happens to be valid Markdown (a text-to-HTML format).
Usage: `html2text.py [(filename|url) [encoding]]`
| Option | Description
|--------------------------------------------------------|--------------------------------------------------
| `--version` | Show program's version number and exit
| `-h`, `--help` | Show this help message and exit
| `--ignore-links` | Don't include any formatting for links
|`--ignore-images` | Don't include any formatting for images
|`-g`, `--google-doc` | Convert an html-exported Google Document
|`-d`, `--dash-unordered-list` | Use a dash rather than a star for unordered list items
|`-b` `BODY_WIDTH`, `--body-width`=`BODY_WIDTH` | Number of characters per output line, `0` for no wrap
|`-i` `LIST_INDENT`, `--google-list-indent`=`LIST_INDENT`| Number of pixels Google indents nested lists
|`-s`, `--hide-strikethrough` | Hide strike-through text. only relevent when `-g` is specified as well
|`--escape-all` | Escape all special characters. Output is less readable, but avoids corner case formatting issues.
Or you can use it from within `Python`:
import html2text
print html2text.html2text("<p>Hello, world.</p>")
Or with some configuration options:
import html2text
h = html2text.HTML2Text()
h.ignore_links = True
print h.handle("<p>Hello, <a href='http://earth.google.com/'>world</a>!")
