Package: python3-html-text (0.5.2-2)

extract text from HTML.

How is html_text different from .xpath('//text()') from LXML or .get_text() from Beautiful Soup ?

 * Text extracted with html_text does not contain inline styles,
   javascript, comments and other text that is not normally visible to
   users;
 * html_text normalizes whitespace, but in a way smarter than
   .xpath('normalize-space()), adding spaces around inline elements (which
   are often used as block elements in html markup), and trying to avoid
   adding extra spaces for punctuation;
 * html-text can add newlines (e.g. after headers or paragraphs), so that
   the output text looks more like how it is rendered in browsers.
