shtml2html

Quick partial implementation of Apache's server-parsed HTML as a static converter to regular HTML. You thus need to manually run the converter whenever the input/data changes.

Installation

npm install -g @edemaine/shtml2html

Usage

shtml2html filename.shtml    # produces filename.html
shtml2html *.shtml           # produces *.html
