t2t is a Perl script that converts standard ASCII text to HTML 4.0 tables. Any text with the delimiter embedded in it is converted to a table.
The user can specify any regular Perl expression as a delimiter; the default delimiter is the tab. As a result, t2t can easily transform any spreadsheet saved as tab delimited text to a HTML table.
The table ends with either the end of the file or the first line of non-delimited text. All other text is just written to the output file.
Here are some key features of "t2t":
Works on Unix, Windows, and MacOSX.
Completely customizable
Process a whole directory (and all of its subdirectories) with one command
Convert any delimited file to a HTML source file with a table
Handle multiple input "tables" in one text file
Read from stdin and write to stdout
Skip a field (do not translate the field to the resulting table)
Produce a complete HTML source file or only the table portion
Color the cells (separate colors for the header and the data cells)
Produce a table displayed as a ledger.
What's New in This Release:
The "addParagraph" RC option has been renamed to "addSpace."
All generated HTML/XHTML will be completely valid.
A DOCTYPE was added for HTML files.
