Editor's review

The personal computer is an expensive toy for some people - those who use it to play games and do a little bit of surfing as well as use it as a digital photos storage - and a faithful servant to others - those who use it mainly for work and are grateful to it for relieving them of the tedious routine calculations and other tasks. Converting plain text to HTML pages might be considered one of such time-consuming tasks. Luckily, now we have AscToHTM to do that for us.
AscToHTM is a powerful utility that lets you convert plain text files to valid HTML pages. It processes your data looking for lists, headings, paragraphs, indentation marks, headings, tables and other text formatting elements that can be recognized in a plain text file and converted to HTML. The output HTML pages are up to one's expectations and usually don't need any manual formatting and editing.
The program can be run either in normal Windows mode or via command line prompt. Try this useful utility today and convert text to HTML in no time.

Publisher's description

AscToHTM is a powerful and highly configurable utility that converts text files into HTML pages. The software uses advanced text-recognition algorithms to detect the headings, bullets, indentation levels, emphasized text, tables and ASCII art in the original text. The result is a good-looking HTML page that faithfully reflects the structure of the original.
AscToHTM detects many types of headings (numbered, underlined etc) which are then used to generate a hyperlinked contents list for your file. The detected headings may then be used to split large files into a set of smaller pages, or a linked set frames.
All URLs, email addresses etc are converted into active hyperlinks, as too are user-specified keywords via a Link Dictionary feature.
Full HTML table generation is attempted on plain text tables. Comma-delimited tables are also supported. A table definition feature allows you to identify different types of table, their structure and the formatting to be applied. For example tables with numerical data can be displayed as series of bar graphs.
AscToHTM comes with many options to customize the output. You can define the title, colors, standard HTML headers and footers, style sheets and meta tags to be added. A preprocessor allows more control over the conversion process and the use of embedded HTML. You can customize your HTML by defining a number of standard fragments, e.g. to add a standard HTML header and footer to each page.
The many options can be saved to "policy files" for re-use at a later date. AscToHTM supports the use of wildcards, and a command line version is well suited to batch conversion. It is supplied with extensive documentation, which is converted from text to HTML by AscToHTM itself.
Whether you are a business user that wants to place key documents and reports on your Intranet, or a budding author who wishes to publish your prose as good-looking e-books, this software will save you many hours of effort.
