# Takes an HTML file, and converts it into a
# Response.Write command for an ASP page.
#
# Usage:
# perl html2asp.pl [input_file] [output_file] (command_indent) (HTML_indent)
#
# input_file and output_file are required.
# command_indent inserts whitespace before the actual Response.Write command.
# HTML_indent inserts whitespace in the string argument to Response.Write.

This script grabs an HTML file, and converts it into a VBScript Response.Write command for use in ASP pages. Allows custom levels of indenting, and does proper double-quote escaping. Simple, really, but I find myself using it all the time.
