Perl with CGI.pm accepts this in a free form text block and
just emitts what looks like an HTML paragraph. I could try
to add do-dads later, such as putting the paragraph into a table
setting background color, font style, etc.
This second paragraph is an addition since I first ran the script,
and the output is pretty ugly, but I like the free form of the
entry of the data. Maybe this program needs a perl script to create
it from an ordinary text file. It would add the perl code to
the text file and then run that to generate this HTML.
There was stuff at the top of this page that appeared to come from a header
object which returned the content type and printed it here. Originally I generated
this HTML file by redirecting from the shell the
standard out of the perl script. The right
thing to do would be to open a file handle for the HTML and leave
standard out alone.
