Re: HTML to ASCII Conversion
The only programs I know which extract the essential text content of a HTML file (this is probably what is wanted, right ?) are browsers like LYNX, which has a Print command to save the extracted text to a file.
The Netscape/Mozilla browser can do it as well,
using the "save page as" menu entry, and then choose text as output format.
Netscape/Mozilla can also work in "remote command" mode, so it may be possible to script the save_as command somehow ...

describing the "lynx -dump -force_html url_or_file "
command. That seems to be a way to go.
In VMS, precede the command by a define/user sys$output textfile, and see what You get in textfile.

Re: HTML to ASCII Conversion
And the lynx browser does it the best way I can imagine. Why reinvent the wheel ?

Re: HTML to ASCII Conversion
I acquired an AWK programme some years ago called dehtml. It requires installation of 'GAWK'(FREEWARE). it detags the file back to ascii and if I remember correctly, has some smarts in it for tables and other 'formatted' data. Used it extensively a long time ago and was impressed. If you want a copy (DEHTML.AWK) mail me and I'll zip it up. It is only 10 blocks.
