I am not a whiz at awk and very unsure about the aplication of awk solve my problem. I was hoping for some quick pointers so I can figure this out.
I have a file that looks like so:
Now, I want this to be changed into:
Notice that I want to change each unicode value to its HTML entity form, while adding a BR tag at the end of each line so it is formatted appropriately in HTML.
A simple find replace does not work since I have to work around already embedded HTML tags. Any help is much apreciated!

Hi,
Is there really a difference between these two, std::hex and ios::hex??
I stumbled upon reading a line, "std::ios::hex is a bitmask (8 on gcc) and works with setf(). std::hex is the operator". Is this true?
Thanks (0 Replies)

CGI::Pretty - module to produce nicely formatted HTML code
SYNOPSIS
use CGI::Pretty qw( :html3 );
# Print a table with a single data element
print table( TR( td( "foo" ) ) );
DESCRIPTION
CGI::Pretty is a module that derives from CGI. It's sole function is to allow users of CGI to output nicely formatted HTML code.
When using the CGI module, the following code:
print table( TR( td( "foo" ) ) );
produces the following output:
<TABLE><TR><TD>foo</TD></TR></TABLE>
If a user were to create a table consisting of many rows and many columns, the resultant HTML code would be quite difficult to read since
it has no carriage returns or indentation.
CGI::Pretty fixes this problem. What it does is add a carriage return and indentation to the HTML code so that one can easily read it.
print table( TR( td( "foo" ) ) );
now produces the following output:
<TABLE>
<TR>
<TD>
foo
</TD>
</TR>
</TABLE>
Tags that won't be formatted
The <A> and <PRE> tags are not formatted. If these tags were formatted, the user would see the extra indentation on the web browser caus-
ing the page to look different than what would be expected. If you wish to add more tags to the list of tags that are not to be touched,
push them onto the @AS_IS array:
push @CGI::Pretty::AS_IS,qw(CODE XMP);
Customizing the Indenting
If you wish to have your own personal style of indenting, you can change the $INDENT variable:
$CGI::Pretty::INDENT = " ";
would cause the indents to be two tabs.
Similarly, if you wish to have more space between lines, you may change the $LINEBREAK variable:
$CGI::Pretty::LINEBREAK = "
";
would create two carriage returns between lines.
If you decide you want to use the regular CGI indenting, you can easily do the following:
$CGI::Pretty::INDENT = $CGI::Pretty::LINEBREAK = "";
