 </text>

Overview

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 XHTML 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"'s arguments, as shown in the examples above.

"NOTYPO"

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

"OPTIONS=str"

This attribute performs two actions: select txt2html as a filter instead of txt2html, and make str arguments be passed literally on the command line of txt2html.
