For fun, I decided to write a library that parses HTML. :)
After writing the library I decided to write a demo application using it
(which prints an English representation of the HTML passed into it and
which also acts as a benchmark app.) According to the demonstration
program, it parsed the PostgreSQL-HOWTO (300kb in HTML format) in
0.16 seconds, which is pretty impressive for a Celeron 500 with 192MB RAM
which also acts as a pretty busy DNS, Web and database server.
Here's the question: how hard would it be to implement this parser into
Lynx?
The parser can be found at
http://devel.usnuk.net/libhtmlparse-0.1-alpha1.tar.gz,
and you can see the uncompressed archive at
http://devel.usnuk.net/libhtmlparse-0.1-alpha1/.
demo/test.c is the benchmark application I ran, while demo/prettyHTML is
another
demo app I wrote for the library (it makes HTML more clear and readable by
adding tabs)
