Re: how do I extarct text from web site

[dominix]

To simply got the text you can use lynx this way

 lynx -dump -nolist URL > mytextfile 

but well, I'll do it like that (ala tom christiansen)

perl -MHTML::Parse -MLWP::Simple -MHTML::FormatText -e 'print HTML::Fo
+rmatText->new->format(parse_html(get($ARGV[0])))' http://perlmonks.or
+g >perlmonks.txt
