The First Conversion - Command Line Interface

If you are in the Gui Interface, please skip this step and read the next one.

If you are in the Command Line Interface, move to the folder where the file was saved and type this command:

txt2tags  --target  html  test.txt

Note that there are spaces between the command parts, but no spaces inside the "--target" string, it is an option. This option is followed by the "html" string, which tells the program to what format your text file will be converted. The last item is the text filename.

If the conversion was done, the results were saved to the test.html file and then the program will show you the " txt2tags wrote test.html" message. If not, it will tell about some error you may have done when typing the command line. Check it with attention.

Here is a sample of how it will be shown on your screen:

prompt$ txt2tags --target html test.txt
txt2tags wrote test.html
prompt$
