SYNOPSIS

#use wml::fmt::text
<: print &wml_fmt_text({ FILE => $file, OPTIONS => '--xhtml', ...}); :>
<text notypo>
FOO
===
1. bar
2. quux
a. baz
b. foo
...
</text>

DESCRIPTION

The usage is simple: Surround the text with the "<text>" container tag and then just write plain ASCII text inside it. The corresponding HTML code is created via txt2html(3), a filter which gives the ASCII text nice formatting semantic which control the HTML result.

If OPTIONS field is specified, a newer txt2html(1) filter is called instead of txt2html, which is dead upstream. This allows for instance generation of XGTML markup.

The core conversion function is wml_fmt_text() which also can be used by other include files.

ATTRIBUTES

These attributes can be used both in the "<text>" tag (in lowercase letters) and in "wml_fmt_text" arguments, as shown in examples above.

"NOTYPO"

By default, font commands are added to headings to highlight them. This attribute prevents alteration of txt2html output.

"OPTIONS=str"

This attribute performs two actions: select

txt2html filter instead of txt2html, and str arguments are passed literally on the command line of txt2html.
