Easy Question:
I'd like to find a free application or method of converting a .txt file to .html and have it keep the spacing and indenting of the text file. It sounds easy, but so far I have gotten mixed results with these apps...
Microsoft Office(adds lots of MS-specific CSS code), Dreamweaver, Wordpad, Textpad, and various freeware apps.
With some of the above methods I could get maybe 10% of the file to work and then the rest would all be pushed to the left margin.
Here is an example of a portion of the huge text file I need to convert...
