# wnhtmlify(1)

produce simple HTML document from text for wn HTTP server

## NAME

wnhtmlify - produce simple HTML document from text for wn HTTP server

## SYNOPSIS

**wnhtmlify**

## DESCRIPTION

**wnhtmlify** is a [**perl**(1)](/perl/1.md) program that is part of the [**wn**(1)](/wn/1.md) HTTP server package.  It reads text from its standard input and prints on its standard output a simple HTML document wrapping the input in **\<pre\>** and **\</pre\>** tags to prevent an HTML browser from formatting the input.  It also escapes certain special characters to prevent misinterpretation by an HTML browser.
