yes, gutenmark converts e-texts into .html.
if it serves your needs, that's fine with me...
you can just move along to the next thread.

i'm the original poster. the original post was
to elicit discussion on the various ways that
people make the ugly p.g. e-texts beautiful...

that's just a small slice of my own total aims,
so gutenmark doesn't do the job i want to do,
but as i've said, i respect both it and its creator.

i've written a lot of words here about my aims,
over and above a simple conversion to .html,
but if it's still unclear to people, then just pass,
because it does _not_ matter to my aims if you
or anyone else understands them at this time...

some people thrive on complexity, and
they will introduce it unnecessarily... :+)
