I have a html file called myfile. If I simply put "cat myfile.html" in UNIX, it shows all the html tags like <a href=r/26><img src="http://www>. But I want to extract only text part.

Same problem happens in "type" command in MS-DOS.

I know you can do it by opening it in Internet Explorer, then "save as text", then open it again. But I need to do this from UNIX, as I have thousands of html files and have no time to convert them to text files one by one. I went through many books, but can't find a way. I would really appreciate your help.
