      1. OTL2HTML.PY Tool Gets Twisted Upgrade

         Noel Henson's python-based otl2html.py tool gets a rather serious but twisted upgrade. Mr. Henson claims that the tool can now take an outline and generate a surprisingly nice-looking web page. The extension would allow for entire websites to be developed using the world renowned Vim Outliner.

      1. Hyperlinks and Images Are Added to OTL2HTML.PY

         In the same spirit as TXT2TAGS, otl2html.py can now process and include hyperlinks and images into the html files it creates. The hyperlinks can be to web pages, ftp sites, mail-tos or any other standard URL. The images can be included as just images or as hyperlinks. Check out the LJ logo in the menu.
