Stx2any is a converter from structured text (Stx), which is plain text written in a standardised way, into other formats. Formats available currently include (X)HTML, man, raw text, DocBook XML, PostScript and LaTeX.

Stx is a markup language in the tradition of plain text like markups, like wiki markup and ReST. For a comparison between different plain text markup languages, see stx2any's home page (http://sange.fi/~atehwa/cgi-bin/piki.cgi/stx2any).

This package also has the following utilities: * strip_stx -- a literate programming tool * gather_stx_titles -- a script to automate cross-linking between documents * extract_usage_from_stx -- a script to produce "usage" messages from man pages written in stx * html2stx -- a utility to convert HTML into Stx.
