The user has a couple of files which control processing. template.wc is a webc template which gives the basic HTML for each file. Where _FILE-TEXT_ is found, it is replaced with the contents of the file. Where txtdir2html is found, it is replaced with the first line of the appropriate *.txt file. index.wc is used to build an index.html file. Where _DIRECTORY_ is found, it is replaced with an index of all of the pages in the directory.

The *.txt files are simple text files which are processed into HTML with some simple rules.

• All email addresses and things which look like web addresses are converted into appropriate hyperlinks.
• Blank lines separate paragraphs.

There are certain parameters and startup files. All parameters can be specified in any place. Parameters take precidence over ~/.txtdir2html.rc which takes precidence over /etc/txtdir2html.rc.

You can see a sample of this application.

You can pick up the entire archive for version v0.04. This contains all of the files mentioned on this page.

Once you have the tar file, you will need to extract and build it. Do something like the following:

	cd
	mkdir txtdir2html
	tar xvfz txtdir2html-0.04.tar.gz
	cd txtdir2html-0.04
	make
