version 2.16
use
HTML::TreeBuilder;
$tree =
HTML::TreeBuilder−>new−>parse_file("test.html");
use HTML::FormatText;
$formatter = HTML::FormatText−>new(leftmargin =>
0, rightmargin => 50);
print $formatter−>format($tree);
or, more simply:
use
HTML::FormatText;
my $string = HTML::FormatText−>format_file(
'test.html',
leftmargin => 0, rightmargin => 50
);
HTML::FormatText is a formatter that outputs plain text. All character attributes (bold/italic/underline) are ignored. Formatting of HTML tables and forms is not implemented.
HTML::FormatText is built on HTML::Formatter and documentation for that module applies to this − especially "new" in HTML::Formatter, "format_file" in HTML::Formatter and "format_string" in HTML::Formatter.
You might
specify the following parameters when constructing the
formatter:
leftmargin (alias lm)
The column of the left margin. The default is 3.
rightmargin (alias rm)
The column of the right margin. The default is 72.
