17 October 2016: Version 7.1 of the
HTML-XML-utils adds an option
-b
to hxunpipe
that allows the program to
read the output of nsgmls.
The option -l
of hxnormalize
now
properly counts characters instead of bytes (at least if the input is
in the UTF-8 encoding). Previously, an option like -l 70
would result in less than 70 characters per line if the line contained
characters other than from the ASCII set.
15 April 2016: Version 7.0 of the HTML-XML-utils adds a few new features and improvements:
style
or
script
element no longer ends the element. When
converting from HTML to XHTML, the content of those elements is
enclosed in <![CDATA[…]]>
(and the same is
removed when converting the other way).hxwls
now expands entities in URLs before printing
them.-a
on hxwls
allows to
convert URLs to ASCII. (Many programs accept IRIs, Internationalized
Resource Identifiers, but some don't, and the HTTP protocol itself
requires them to be converted to ASCII.)hxtoc
now has an option -f
(for
“flatten”), to remove all mark-up from the headings that are put in
the table of contents.-O
(“only”) and -X
(“exclude”)
on hxindex
allows to restricts which elements are put
in the alphabetical index.hxprintlinks
has been rewritten in C.
