txt2tags is a GPL format conversion tool written in python that generates HTML, SGML, LaTeX, man page, MoinMoin, Magic Point and PageMaker documents from a plain text file with little marks.
Different from other conversion tools, it is generic, and not target-specific (as a txt2html tool). This way, you can keep just one source text file and one tool for all your formatting needs.
It's a plain python script, so no other external commands or libraries are needed.
Supports header, title, bold/italic/underline, preformatted, quote, link, lists, bar, image and table.
With txt2tags, you focuses your mind on the document CONTENT, and forget about formatting. Just let the program do this dirty job.
