        input.html > output.wiki

DESCRIPTION

html2wiki is a command-line interface to HTML::WikiConverter, which it uses to convert HTML to wiki markup.

DIALECTS

If the dialect you provide in --dialect is not installed on your system (e.g. if you specify MediaWiki but have not installed its dialect module, HTML::WikiConverter::MediaWiki) a fatal error will be issued. Use html2wiki --list to list all available dialects on your system. Additional dialects may be downloaded from the CPAN.

INPUT/OUTPUT

Input is taken from STDIN, so you may pipe the output from another program into html2wiki. For example:

  curl http://example.com/input.html | html2wiki --dialect MediaWiki

You may also specify a file to read HTML from:

  html2wiki --dialect MediaWiki input.html

Output is sent to STDOUT, though you may redirect it on the command line:

   html2wiki --dialect MediaWiki input.html > output.wiki

Or you may pipe it into another program:

   html2wiki --dialect MediaWiki input.html | less
