MS2HTML(1) MS2HTML(1)
NAME
ms2html, html2ms - convert between troff's ms macros and
html
SYNOPSIS
ms2html < input > output
html2ms < input > output
DESCRIPTION
Ms2html converts the ms(6) source on standard input into
HTML and prints it to standard output. If the source con-
tains tbl(1) or eqn input, you must first pipe the text
through those preprocessors. Postscript images, equations,
and tables will be converted to gif files. If the document
has a .TL entry, its contents will be used as the title;
otherwise ms2html will look for a ._T macro, unknown to
ms(6), and take its value.
SOURCE
/sys/src/cmd/ms2html.c
/sys/src/cmd/html2ms.c
BUGS
Ms2html doesn't understand a number of troff commands. It
does handle macros and defined strings.
Html2ms doesn't understand html tables.
