Is there an easy way to convert styled text to HTML?
Depends what you mean by 'styled text'.
Styled text as per Apple's styled text type and as returned when you
copy text from a FileMaker Pro 6 text field whose contents have been
styled with bold, underline and italic styles. We were writing
routines yesterday to get this data out of a system which is being
end-of-lifed and it'd be good not to loose the styling.
While AppleScript does define a 'styled text' type, it's largely a
dead duck these days.
Which will explain why all the tools I found for dealing with styled
text need to run under OS 9.
For converting RTF documents, man textutil (OS10.4+).
Ha. You're a mine of useful information. Thanks. I'll file that one
for future ref. Not what I need now but almost certainly useful
sooner or later.
