/---------------------------------------------------------------------------------\ | | | STD Page Generation System - a classic text mode HTML generator | | | | STD requires a recent version of PHP. It generates HTML from simple text which | | can optionally have a few HTML tags (links, but no images) as well as some | | simple formatting hints (such as centering). | | | | It's primarily designed to generate fixed-width (i.e. looks like text mode) | | text, though it can also generate plain, accessible HTML. It can generate a | | text border, and random noise background text if you desire. | | | | Why does STD exist? Well, you know those times when you're just going to make | | a simple HTML page for something? That's really too much work, you're typing | | all sorts of stuff over and over again, and inevitably it looks way too | | modern, with its variable width fonts and whatnot. And those pages are too | | readable on all devices. So we give you an alternative. Stupidly formatted | | text pages. Useless on things other than a PC, probably. Especially if you | | turn on the random text background--then it's nearly unreadable on a lot of | | devices. Which makes me tempted to make an option for sane rendering (i.e. | | generating simple HTML, hmm)... OK done for v0.4! BUT DON'T USE IT. IT'S TOO | | ACCESSIBLE! Or do what you please. On second thought, don't really use any of | | this script, it's too lame. | | | | Current version: | | | | STD v0.6 (10/02/05) | | + Support for a few html entities (& © < >) | | | | Old versions: | | | | STD v0.5 (9/30/05) | | + improvements to sane mode (since cockos.com uses it now) | | | | STD v0.4 (5/27/05) | | + support for sane mode | | | | STD v0.3 (5/27/05) | | + support for optional text border | | + support for optional random-background-text (i.e. like NS BEEF) | | | | STD v0.2 (5/27/05) | | + autowrap support for long lines. specify your width/min height here. | | (inspired by John Caruso's version) | | | | STD v0.1 | | + first version | | | | License: public domain | | | | Someone made a nifty version of STD that functions as a wiki. | | | | Send improvements to submissions@cockos.com. | | | | | | Copyright © 2004-2005 Cockos Incorporated. | | | \---------------------------------------------------------------------------------/ |
