NAME

       hxwls - list links in an HTML file

SYNOPSIS

       hxwls [ -l ] [ -t ] [ -r ] [ -h ] [ -b  base ] [ file ]

DESCRIPTION

       The hxwls command reads an HTML file (standard input by default) and prints out all links it finds. The output is written to stdout.

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       -l	 Produce  a  long  listing. Instead of just the URI, hxwls prints three columns: the element name, the value of the REL attribute,
		 and the target URI.

       -t	 Produce a tuple listing.  hxwls prints four columns: the URI of the document itself, the element  name,  the  value  of  the  REL
		 attribute, and the target URI.

       -r	 Print relative URLs as they are, without converting them to absolute URLs.

       -b base	 Use base as the initial base URL. If there is a <base> element in the document, it will override the -b option.

       -h	 Output as HTML. The output will be listed in the form of <a> elements.

OPERANDS

       The following operand is supported:

       file	 The name or the URL of an HTML file. If absent, standard input is read instead.

DIAGNOSTICS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0	 Successful completion.

       > 0	 An error occurred in the parsing of the HTML file.  hxwls will try to correct the error and produce output anyway.

NAME

       hxref - generate cross-references inside and between HTML files

SYNOPSIS

       hxref [ -x ] [ -l ] [ -b base ] [ -i index ] [ -- ] [ input [ output ] ]

DESCRIPTION

       The  hxref command links inline elements to DFN elements with the same content.	It adds ID attributes where necessary. If the content of a
       DFN or other element isn't suitable, the TITLE attribute may be used to provide the term to use for comparisons.

       Here is an example:

	   <p>A <dfn>b-box</dfn> is defined to be...
	   <p>For every b there is a <em>b-box</em>...

       The output of hxref will be similar to this:

	   <p>A <dfn id="b-box">b-box</dfn> is defined to be...
	   <p>For every b there is a <a href="#b-box"><em>b-box</em></a>...

OPTIONS

       The following options are supported:

       -x	 Use XML conventions: empty elements are written with a slash at the end: <IMG />

       -b base	 Sets the prefix for the generated URLs. By default base is empty, which generates URLs like "#b-box" above. If base  is  set  to,
		 e.g., "http://xyz/", the URLs will look like "http://xyz/#b-box".

       -i index  Directs hxref to read terms from a database file before looking for them in the document and afterwards store the terms that were
		 found in the same file. DFN element in the document override terms found in index.  This allows hxref to be run multiple times on
		 different  files, to make the files refer to each other. It may be necessary to run the commands twice, to resolve all cross-ref-
		 erences.

       -l	 Try to use language-specific information to match instances to their definitions. Currently, only English is  supported  and  the
		 only rules applied are to search without a final "s" ("trees" matches "tree"), without a final "es" ("bosses" matches "boss") and
		 with a "y" replacing a final "ies" ("bounties" matches "bounty").  hxref determines  the  language  from  "lang"  and	"xml:lang"
		 attributes in the document.

OPERANDS

       The following operands are supported:

       input	 The  name  of	an  HTML file. If absent, standard input is read instead.  The special name "-" also indicates standard input. The
		 input may be an URL.

       output	 The file to write to. If absent, standard output is used. This may not be a URL.

DIAGNOSTICS

       The following exit values are returned:

       0	 Successful completion.

       > 0	 An error occurred in the parsing of the HTML file.  hxref will try to correct the error and produce output anyway.

BUGS

       The error recovery for incorrect HTML is primitive.

       The program generates ID attributes, but doesn't generate <a name=...> tags,  so  the  links  only  work  in  browsers  that  recognize	ID
       attributes.

       The rules for matching English plurals are primitif. No dictionary is used. E.g., "bees" will be considered a plural of "be".

       There is currently no way to set the default language for a document for when the root element has no "lang" or "xml:lang" attribute.
