please stick to plain text sources.
here's a little script that converts text PEP's to HTML. feel
free to add it to your uploading scripts.
# convert PEP's to (X)HTML
import cgi, glob, os, re
fixpat =3D =
re.compile("((http|ftp):[-_a-zA-Z0-9/.+?~:]+)|(pep-\d+(.txt)?|.")
def fixanchor(match):
text =3D match.group(0)
link =3D None
if text[:5] =3D=3D "http:" or text[:4] =3D=3D "ftp:":
link =3D text
elif text[:3] =3D=3D "pep":
link =3D os.path.splitext(text)[0] + ".html"
if link:
return "<a href=3D'%s'>%s</a>" % (link, cgi.escape(text))
return cgi.escape(match.group(0))
def fixfile(infile, outfile):
# convert plain text pep to minimal XHTML markup
fi =3D open(infile)
fo =3D open(outfile, "w")
fo.write("<html>\n")
# head
header =3D []
fo.write("<head>\n")
while 1:
line =3D fi.readline()
if not line or ":" not in line:
break
key, value =3D line.split(":", 1)
value =3D value.strip()
header.append((key, value))
if key.lower() =3D=3D "title":
fo.write("<title>%s</title>\n" % cgi.escape(value))
fo.write("</head>\n")
# body
fo.write("<body bgcolor=3D'white'>\n")
fo.write("<pre>\n")
for k, v in header:
fo.write("<b>%s:</b> %s\n" % (cgi.escape(k), cgi.escape(v)))
title =3D 0
while 1:
line =3D fi.readline()
if not line:
break
if line[:1] =3D=3D "\f":
fo.write("<hr>\n")
title =3D 1
else:
line =3D fixpat.sub(fixanchor, line)
if title:
fo.write("<h3>%s</h3>\n" % line)
else:
fo.write(line)
title =3D 0
fo.write("</pre>\n")
fo.write("</body>\n")
fo.write("</html>\n")
for file in glob.glob("pep-*.txt"):
print file, "..."
fixfile(file, os.path.splitext(file)[0] + ".html")
