# This script takes a txt file and use a template to create
# html pages linked in a linear sequence and containing each a line of the txt
# It generate also the css out of a template.
# I would like to make also a circular version. A loop that arrived at the last page reconnects with the first page.
# and eventually try other possible sequences and links (such as metarefresh etc..)
# This could become a commad, like > htgen [chose if linear (-l) or circular (-c) or ...] [input file] [input html template]
