NAME
HTML::FromText - mark up text as HTML
SYNOPSIS
use HTML::FromText;
print text2html($text, urls => 1, paras => 1, headings => 1);
DESCRIPTION
The text2html function marks up plain text as HTML. By
default it converts HTML metacharacters into the
corresponding entities. More sophisticated transformations,
such as splitting the text into paragraphs or marking up
bulleted lists, can be carried out by setting the
appropriate options.

NEW FEATURES
1.004 New options 'blockparas' (mark up block quotes as ordinary
paragraphs) and 'blockcode' (mark up block quotes in
fixed-width font while preserving line breaks and spaces).
Tabs are expanded throughout the text (it was a bug not to
do so in earlier versions because alignment could be lost,
block quotes not recognised, etc).
New option 'tables'.
