"links -dump" output format issue
Hi All,

I tried searching a lot about this but to no avail. I have a HTML file. I used

Code:
links -dump file_page.html > text_html.txt

What the above command gave me was a filtered text from the HTML file with tags removed. Now, the the output from the above command looked something like this:

Code:
This is a [1]test HTML [2]file.
References

         Visible Links
         1. file:///feed/rss.cgi?ChanKey=PubMedNews
         2. file:///corehtml/query/static/pubmedsearch.xml

The above output means that "test" is hyperlinked to page file:///feed/rss.cgi?ChanKey=PubMedNews and "file" is hyperlinked to file:///corehtml/query/static/pubmedsearch.xml


My question is: Can "links" give me output where [1] and [2] are removed and the exact HTML links are embedded? I mean I wish my output could be like:

Code:
This is a [file:///feed/rss.cgi?ChanKey=PubMedNews]test HTML [file:///corehtml/query/static/pubmedsearch.xml]file.

Or is there any other way of accomplishing my task?

I am using Linux with Bash.

html::rewriteattributes::links

HTML::RewriteAttributes::Links(3pm)			User Contributed Perl Documentation		       HTML::RewriteAttributes::Links(3pm)

NAME

       HTML::RewriteAttributes::Links - concise link rewriting

SYNOPSIS

	   # up for some HTML::ResolveLink?
	   $html = HTML::RewriteAttributes::Links->rewrite($html, "http://search.cpan.org");

	   # or perhaps HTML::LinkExtor?
	   HTML::RewriteAttributes::Links->rewrite($html, sub {
	       my ($tag, $attr, $value) = @_;
	       push @links, $value;
	       $value;
	   });

DESCRIPTION

       "HTML::RewriteAttributes::Links" is a special case of HTML::RewriteAttributes for rewriting links.

       See HTML::ResolveLink and HTML::LinkExtor for examples of what you can do with this.

METHODS

   "new"
       You don't need to call "new" explicitly - it's done in "rewrite". It takes no arguments.

   "rewrite" HTML, (callback|base)[, args] -> HTML
       See the documentation of HTML::RewriteAttributes.

       Instead of a callback, you may pass a string. This will mimic the behavior of HTML::ResolveLink -- relative links will be rewritten using
       the given string as a base URL.

       HTML::RewriteAttributes, HTML::Parser, HTML::ResolveLink, HTML::LinkExtor
